It is a must for Hell to increase. The enlargement is&lt;br /&gt;because of the masses of people going there. Thus the purpose of earthquakes and volcanoes.&lt;br /&gt;Hell is expanding in more ways then one. Lucifer has established his kingdom here on earth;&lt;br /&gt;just like Daniel and John said he would. Satan has taken over America and now governs her by&lt;br /&gt;his own laws. Case law is of the devil and is leading all the world into Lucifer's hellish&lt;br /&gt;kingdom.&lt;br /&gt;As a true believing Christians, we are supposed to be in rebellion against man's laws and&lt;br /&gt;obedient to God's laws. Thus I say to you: Woe is you America, God is shedding his wrath on&lt;br /&gt;you and yet you are not repenting. Ahem, this is to you, Bible belt land: God 's wrath is upon&lt;br /&gt;you. Wake up you fools.... Quit supporting the most diabolical, heinous, devilish government,&lt;br /&gt;history has ever known. I fear for you Amerikan Nazi's, who will drink every dreg of the wrath&lt;br /&gt;of God. Those who fear the laws of men beyond the laws of God, rely on men more then you&lt;br /&gt;do God. The United States of America is that horn full of eyes, as Daniel saw. This is the most&lt;br /&gt;wicked, evil, rotten empire that the world has ever known. Wake up my ass... Keep sleeping,&lt;br /&gt;your destruction will come at a time when you least expect it..&lt;br /&gt;Oh my God!!! These Americans think they're free!!!! Skip paying your taxes, permission slips,&lt;br /&gt;licensing, insurance and we'll see just how free you really are. I marvel how you don't see the&lt;br /&gt;blatant lies the government tells you. On the contrary, you believe every lie you hear on that&lt;br /&gt;damn TV, in the heretic newspapers and magazines. Your life is nothing but a joke, because&lt;br /&gt;your fear of God is based on the mere, inaccurate precept of men: anything from Deism to&lt;br /&gt;Atheism.&lt;br /&gt;Case law was written by men. Men who knew there is a God; however and unbelievably so,&lt;br /&gt;they hated God with a passion. It is this caliber of men who are in charge of the United States&lt;br /&gt;laws, government, presidents, banks, corporations, lawyers, doctors etc. and etc., those who all&lt;br /&gt;bow to case law and it's author Lucifer; you know, the torch bearer, the Statue of Liberty. (a&lt;br /&gt;Statue of Destruction is more accurate.)&lt;br /&gt;Case law is not what the United States was built on!!! Blackstone Law, directly derived from&lt;br /&gt;God's laws, His Word on how to govern a nation- is the only law which provides us with a&lt;br /&gt;Constitution and the freedoms thereof, nor does it ever change (in other words, it's written in&lt;br /&gt;stone and not one tittle will ever falter or pass away.). Case law only violates your&lt;br /&gt;Constitutional rights, as it has always done, and can only change for the worse, leading you&lt;br /&gt;toward taking the Mark of the Beast. So you feel safe? Oh really? Not only have we Americans&lt;br /&gt;abandoned God's law and observe man's laws, we have abandoned God as an entity, a personal&lt;br /&gt;being. We think of God as deist, which is an evil concept. Deism has abandoned God's laws&lt;br /&gt;also. They know that God exist, yet they ignore His laws and His warnings in order to be ruled&lt;br /&gt;by themselves, their own fleshly desires, rather then to be ruled by God and His Spiritual desires&lt;br /&gt;for us. Atheism ignores the fact that there is a God which makes it easier for the Atheist to&lt;br /&gt;justify man's laws over and above God's laws. Such teachings as evolution, psychology,&lt;br /&gt;philosophy and sexual perversions, all stem from Atheism. Deism debases into the same&lt;br /&gt;teachings but will throw in spirituality; spirituality on a demonic scale.&lt;br /&gt;There is a pervasive evil ruling in the hearts and minds of men and women today. It is an evil&lt;br /&gt;that is greater then anyone can imagine. This wickedness consist of blasphemy against God, lust&lt;br /&gt;and greed for money and material wealth, power and sex. It's not God's power they want, they&lt;br /&gt;want Lucifer's power. Black Magic is the order of the day. Out of this evilness, the image of the&lt;br /&gt;beast rises. It ascends out of the oceans of people that live in sin and the cares of this world. It's&lt;br /&gt;mentioned in God's Holy Word. Daniel foretells us of this fierce, terrible beast, who's kingdom&lt;br /&gt;will be established in the last days. This kingdom is in existence today, and this beast has&lt;br /&gt;deceived practically everybody, and if he could, the very elect, (just as Jesus warned.)&lt;br /&gt;Daniel 7:7-28 speaks of this monster.:&lt;br /&gt;“After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong&lt;br /&gt;exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue&lt;br /&gt;with the feet of it: (Speaking of the 'feet kingdom' the image that king Nebuchadnezzar, of&lt;br /&gt;Babylon, saw in his dream.) and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had&lt;br /&gt;ten horns.&lt;br /&gt;I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom&lt;br /&gt;there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: (These three horns, I believe, are&lt;br /&gt;Germany, Japan and Italy.) and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a&lt;br /&gt;mouth speaking great things. (This horn is the United States,who reads all your emails, listens&lt;br /&gt;to all your phone calls, and has cameras and satellites, watching you.)&lt;br /&gt;I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white&lt;br /&gt;as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his&lt;br /&gt;wheels as burning fire. (Speaking of the second coming of Jesus Christ, the everlasting King.)&lt;br /&gt;A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him,&lt;br /&gt;and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were&lt;br /&gt;opened.&lt;br /&gt;I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the&lt;br /&gt;beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame. (The United States&lt;br /&gt;plays a major role in this beast kingdom and will be destroyed with it., Those who remain&lt;br /&gt;alive in the United States will be a few, as God chooses.)&lt;br /&gt;As concerning the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away: yet their lives were&lt;br /&gt;prolonged for a season and time.&lt;br /&gt;I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven,&lt;br /&gt;and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him.&lt;br /&gt;And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and&lt;br /&gt;languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away,&lt;br /&gt;and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.&lt;br /&gt;I Daniel was grieved in my spirit in the midst of my body, and the visions of my head troubled me.&lt;br /&gt;I came near unto one of them that stood by, and asked him the truth of all this. So he told me, and&lt;br /&gt;made me know the interpretation of the things. (Daniel was afraid of the terrible countenance&lt;br /&gt;of this beast, yet, we are not afraid of it today.)&lt;br /&gt;These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth.&lt;br /&gt;But the saints of the most High shall take the kingdom, and possess the kingdom for ever, even for&lt;br /&gt;ever and ever.&lt;br /&gt;Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast, which was diverse from all the others, exceeding&lt;br /&gt;dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and his nails of brass; which devoured, brake in pieces, and&lt;br /&gt;stamped the residue with his feet;&lt;br /&gt;And of the ten horns that were in his head, and of the other which came up, and before whom&lt;br /&gt;three fell; even of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spake very great things, whose look&lt;br /&gt;was more stout than his fellows. (Uncle Sam)&lt;br /&gt;I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them; (Thus the&lt;br /&gt;War Between the States, WW I ,WWII, the Korean war, Vietnam, Cambodia, all military&lt;br /&gt;operations and even the Iraq and Afghanistan murders.)&lt;br /&gt;Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the&lt;br /&gt;time came that the saints possessed the kingdom. (The United States will fall into the hands of&lt;br /&gt;the saints of Christ Jesus the Lord., there will be little mercy shown to those who are&lt;br /&gt;walking contrary to God's HolyWord, heading down that wide path of destruction, living for&lt;br /&gt;the lazy flesh.&lt;br /&gt;Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse&lt;br /&gt;from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in&lt;br /&gt;pieces.&lt;br /&gt;And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after&lt;br /&gt;them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings. (This is the same&lt;br /&gt;beast that John saw in Revelations 13.)&lt;br /&gt;And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most&lt;br /&gt;High, and think to change times and laws: (Ahem, please research the history of American&lt;br /&gt;Law.) and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.&lt;br /&gt;But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it&lt;br /&gt;unto the end.&lt;br /&gt;And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven, shall&lt;br /&gt;be given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,&lt;br /&gt;and all dominions shall serve and obey him.&lt;br /&gt;Hitherto is the end of the matter. As for me Daniel, my cogitations much troubled me, and my&lt;br /&gt;countenance changed in me: but I kept the matter in my heart.”&lt;br /&gt;Daniel goes on to explain the events during the history of each beast in chapter 11, spelling out&lt;br /&gt;history before it ever happened, with 100% accuracy:&lt;br /&gt;Daniel 11:1 Also I in the first year of Darius the Mede, even I, stood to confirm and to strengthen&lt;br /&gt;him.&lt;br /&gt;2 And now will I shew thee the truth. Behold, there shall stand up yet three kings in Persia; and&lt;br /&gt;the fourth shall be far richer than they all: and by his strength through his riches he shall stir up&lt;br /&gt;all against the realm of Grecia. (This was written before Greece ever existed!)&lt;br /&gt;3 And a mighty king shall stand up, that shall rule with great dominion, and do according to his&lt;br /&gt;will.&lt;br /&gt;4 And when he shall stand up, his kingdom shall be broken, and shall be divided toward the four&lt;br /&gt;winds of heaven; and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion which he ruled: for his&lt;br /&gt;kingdom shall be plucked up, even for others beside those.&lt;br /&gt;5 And the king of the south shall be strong, and one of his princes; and he shall be strong above&lt;br /&gt;him, and have dominion; his dominion shall be a great dominion.&lt;br /&gt;6 And in the end of years they shall join themselves together; for the king's daughter of the south&lt;br /&gt;shall come to the king of the north to make an agreement: but she shall not retain the power of&lt;br /&gt;the arm; neither shall he stand, nor his arm: but she shall be given up, and they that brought her,&lt;br /&gt;and he that begat her, and he that strengthened her in these times.&lt;br /&gt;7 But out of a branch of her roots shall one stand up in his estate, which shall come with an&lt;br /&gt;army, and shall enter into the fortress of the king of the north, and shall deal against them, and&lt;br /&gt;shall prevail:&lt;br /&gt;8 And shall also carry captives into Egypt their gods, with their princes, and with their precious&lt;br /&gt;vessels of silver and of gold; and he shall continue more years than the king of the north.&lt;br /&gt;9 So the king of the south shall come into his kingdom, and shall return into his own land.&lt;br /&gt;10 But his sons shall be stirred up, and shall assemble a multitude of great forces: and one shall&lt;br /&gt;certainly come, and overflow, and pass through: then shall he return, and be stirred up, even to&lt;br /&gt;his fortress.&lt;br /&gt;11 And the king of the south shall be moved with choler, and shall come forth and fight with him,&lt;br /&gt;even with the king of the north: and he shall set forth a great multitude; but the multitude shall be&lt;br /&gt;given into his hand.&lt;br /&gt;12 And when he hath taken away the multitude, his heart shall be lifted up; and he shall cast&lt;br /&gt;down many ten thousands: but he shall not be strengthened by it.&lt;br /&gt;13 For the king of the north shall return, and shall set forth a multitude greater than the former,&lt;br /&gt;and shall certainly come after certain years with a great army and with much riches.&lt;br /&gt;14 And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south: also the robbers of&lt;br /&gt;thy people shall exalt themselves to establish the vision; but they shall fall.&lt;br /&gt;15 So the king of the north shall come, and cast up a mount, and take the most fenced cities: and&lt;br /&gt;the arms of the south shall not withstand, neither his chosen people, neither shall there be any&lt;br /&gt;strength to withstand.&lt;br /&gt;16 But he that cometh against him shall do according to his own will, and none shall stand&lt;br /&gt;before him: and he shall stand in the glorious land, which by his hand shall be consumed.&lt;br /&gt;17 He shall also set his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, and upright ones&lt;br /&gt;with him; thus shall he do: and he shall give him the daughter of women, corrupting her: but she&lt;br /&gt;shall not stand on his side, neither be for him.&lt;br /&gt;18 After this shall he turn his face unto the isles, and shall take many: but a prince for his own&lt;br /&gt;behalf shall cause the reproach offered by him to cease; without his own reproach he shall cause&lt;br /&gt;it to turn upon him.&lt;br /&gt;19 Then he shall turn his face toward the fort of his own land: but he shall stumble and fall, and&lt;br /&gt;not be found.&lt;br /&gt;20 Then shall stand up in his estate a raiser of taxes in the glory of the kingdom: but within few&lt;br /&gt;days he shall be destroyed, neither in anger, nor in battle.&lt;br /&gt;21 And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honour of the&lt;br /&gt;kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries.&lt;br /&gt;22 And with the arms of a flood shall they be overflown from before him, and shall be broken;&lt;br /&gt;yea, also the prince of the covenant.&lt;br /&gt;23 And after the league made with him he shall work deceitfully: for he shall come up, and shall&lt;br /&gt;become strong with a small people.&lt;br /&gt;24 He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do that&lt;br /&gt;which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers' fathers; he shall scatter among them the prey,&lt;br /&gt;and spoil, and riches: yea, and he shall forecast his devices against the strong holds, even for a&lt;br /&gt;time.&lt;br /&gt;25 And he shall stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great&lt;br /&gt;army; and the king of the south shall be stirred up to battle with a very great and mighty army;&lt;br /&gt;but he shall not stand: for they shall forecast devices against him.&lt;br /&gt;26 Yea, they that feed of the portion of his meat shall destroy him, and his army shall overflow:&lt;br /&gt;and many shall fall down slain.&lt;br /&gt;27 And both these kings' hearts shall be to do mischief, and they shall speak lies at one table; but&lt;br /&gt;it shall not prosper: for yet the end shall be at the time appointed.&lt;br /&gt;28 Then shall he return into his land with great riches; and his heart shall be against the holy&lt;br /&gt;covenant; and he shall do exploits, and return to his own land.&lt;br /&gt;29 At the time appointed he shall return, and come toward the south; but it shall not be as the&lt;br /&gt;former, or as the latter.&lt;br /&gt;30 For the ships of Chittim shall come against him: therefore he shall be grieved, and return,&lt;br /&gt;and have indignation against the holy covenant: so shall he do; he shall even return, and have&lt;br /&gt;intelligence with them that forsake the holy covenant.&lt;br /&gt;31 And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall&lt;br /&gt;take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate.&lt;br /&gt;32 And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people&lt;br /&gt;that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.&lt;br /&gt;33 And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the&lt;br /&gt;sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days.&lt;br /&gt;34 Now when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a little help: but many shall cleave to them&lt;br /&gt;with flatteries.&lt;br /&gt;35 And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them&lt;br /&gt;white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.&lt;br /&gt;36 And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself&lt;br /&gt;above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till&lt;br /&gt;the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.&lt;br /&gt;37 Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god:&lt;br /&gt;for he shall magnify himself above all.&lt;br /&gt;38 But in his estate shall he honour the God of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not&lt;br /&gt;shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.&lt;br /&gt;39 Thus shall he do in the most strong holds with a strange god, whom he shall acknowledge and&lt;br /&gt;increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall divide the land for gain.&lt;br /&gt;40 And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north&lt;br /&gt;shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships;&lt;br /&gt;and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.&lt;br /&gt;41 He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these&lt;br /&gt;shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon.&lt;br /&gt;42 He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not&lt;br /&gt;escape.&lt;br /&gt;43 But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious&lt;br /&gt;things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his steps.&lt;br /&gt;44 But tidings out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him: therefore he shall go forth&lt;br /&gt;with great fury to destroy, and utterly to make away many.&lt;br /&gt;45 And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy&lt;br /&gt;mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.&lt;br /&gt;Jesus said in Mark 13:22:&lt;br /&gt;“For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it&lt;br /&gt;were possible, even the elect.”&lt;br /&gt;1. It isn't fact and truth that sells in today's market. We are all lead to the slaughter via&lt;br /&gt;seduction. Preachers only know how to seduce you in this day and age. The truth can&lt;br /&gt;only convict you. God forbid that anyone should feel a conviction! Why a conviction&lt;br /&gt;could save your soul! It's more fun to enjoy the flesh with a false sense of security and&lt;br /&gt;peace.&lt;br /&gt;Our Lord and Savior also said in Matthew 22:11-14&lt;br /&gt;“And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding&lt;br /&gt;garment:&lt;br /&gt;And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he&lt;br /&gt;was speechless.&lt;br /&gt;Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into&lt;br /&gt;outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.&lt;br /&gt;For many are called, but few are chosen. “ (A good warning to interject)&lt;br /&gt;This is a scary statement by our Lord and Savior, Jesus, when we examine the word “many” in&lt;br /&gt;Daniel 12:10&lt;br /&gt;“Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none&lt;br /&gt;of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.“&lt;br /&gt;Could this be the many who are called?&lt;br /&gt;Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians 1:26-27&lt;br /&gt;1Co 1:26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many&lt;br /&gt;mighty, not many noble, are called:&lt;br /&gt;1Co 1:27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God&lt;br /&gt;hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;&lt;br /&gt;Let's say that God needed some one to stand in the gap, between Himself and the sinners, per se.&lt;br /&gt;There would not be one person alive, in this day and age, of who I know or ever heard of, who&lt;br /&gt;could qualify for the job, not even myself. The following prophecy of Ezekiel 22:1-31, is to&lt;br /&gt;you America:&lt;br /&gt;Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,&lt;br /&gt;Now, thou son of man, wilt thou judge, wilt thou judge the bloody city? yea, thou shalt shew her&lt;br /&gt;all her abominations. (And America has many abominations. We are murderers for one,&lt;br /&gt;slaughtering not only innocent unborn children but sovereign nations as well. Those&lt;br /&gt;of you who call genocide fighting for freedom will bear your own shame, when we&lt;br /&gt;discover the number of innocent men, women and children we have slaughtered&lt;br /&gt;since World War I. The people of America accept this type of behavior because they&lt;br /&gt;are mis-led into believing that these wars were fought for our freedom. If you ever&lt;br /&gt;study Albert Pike's letters, you will discover that both world wars were stages for the&lt;br /&gt;initiation of a New World Order. If this is true, and yes, it is, then what will be your&lt;br /&gt;answer to God on Judgment Day? This question is also to those of you who are&lt;br /&gt;supporting the carnage which our troops are creating in Iraq and Afghanistan for the&lt;br /&gt;sake of our national interest in opium and oil. The real carnage is at hand, which will&lt;br /&gt;be the slaughter of six billion people. This is what is on their agenda, yet only God&lt;br /&gt;can intervene and destroy this wicked empire before it wreaks death and havoc in all&lt;br /&gt;the earth. See Matthew 24:22.).&lt;br /&gt;Then say thou, Thus saith the Lord GOD, The city sheddeth blood in the midst of it, that her time&lt;br /&gt;may come, and maketh idols against herself to defile herself.&lt;br /&gt;Thou art become guilty in thy blood that thou hast shed; and hast defiled thyself in thine idols&lt;br /&gt;which thou hast made; and thou hast caused thy days to draw near, and art come even unto thy&lt;br /&gt;years: therefore have I made thee a reproach unto the heathen, and a mocking to all countries.&lt;br /&gt;Those that be near, and those that be far from thee, shall mock thee, which art infamous and&lt;br /&gt;much vexed. (When Jesus returns, this can be what the American people, if they survive His&lt;br /&gt;coming, will experience. Believing in lies, wholeheartedly is a mockery without honor..&lt;br /&gt;Let's look at some of the lies Americans believe: They think that man actually landed on the&lt;br /&gt;moon! They believe they are evolving, when evolution doesn't exist, nor is it&lt;br /&gt;mathematically possible. They think that God loves homosexuals, one of the very reasons&lt;br /&gt;He destroyed the earth with a flood and annihilated Sodom and Gomorrah by fire! And&lt;br /&gt;what will we think when God's Word judges us, in the end and accurately with Proverbs&lt;br /&gt;30:11-14?&lt;br /&gt;Behold, the princes of Israel, every one were in thee to their power to shed blood.&lt;br /&gt;In thee have they set light by father and mother: in the midst of thee have they dealt by oppression&lt;br /&gt;with the stranger: in thee have they vexed the fatherless and the widow.&lt;br /&gt;Thou hast despised mine holy things, and hast profaned my sabbaths.&lt;br /&gt;Eze 22:9 In thee are men that carry tales to shed blood: and in thee they eat upon the mountains:&lt;br /&gt;in the midst of thee they commit lewdness.&lt;br /&gt;In thee have they discovered their fathers' nakedness: in thee have they humbled her that was set&lt;br /&gt;apart for pollution.&lt;br /&gt;And one hath committed abomination with his neighbour's wife; and another hath lewdly defiled&lt;br /&gt;his daughter in law; and another in thee hath humbled his sister, his father's daughter.&lt;br /&gt;In thee have they taken gifts to shed blood; thou hast taken usury and increase, and thou hast&lt;br /&gt;greedily gained of thy neighbours by extortion, and hast forgotten me, saith the Lord GOD.&lt;br /&gt;Behold, therefore I have smitten mine hand at thy dishonest gain which thou hast made, and at&lt;br /&gt;thy blood which hath been in the midst of thee.&lt;br /&gt;Can thine heart endure, or can thine hands be strong, in the days that I shall deal with thee? I the&lt;br /&gt;LORD have spoken it, and will do it.&lt;br /&gt;And I will scatter thee among the heathen, and disperse thee in the countries, and will consume&lt;br /&gt;thy filthiness out of thee.&lt;br /&gt;And thou shalt take thine inheritance in thyself in the sight of the heathen, and thou shalt know&lt;br /&gt;that I am the LORD.&lt;br /&gt;And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,&lt;br /&gt;Son of man, the house of Israel is to me become dross: all they are brass, and tin, and iron, and&lt;br /&gt;lead, in the midst of the furnace; they are even the dross of silver.&lt;br /&gt;Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye are all become dross, behold, therefore I will&lt;br /&gt;gather you into the midst of Jerusalem.&lt;br /&gt;As they gather silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin, into the midst of the furnace, to blow&lt;br /&gt;the fire upon it, to melt it; so will I gather you in mine anger and in my fury, and I will leave you&lt;br /&gt;there, and melt you.&lt;br /&gt;Yea, I will gather you, and blow upon you in the fire of my wrath, and ye shall be melted in the&lt;br /&gt;midst thereof. (Ahem, God is speaking about hell here.)&lt;br /&gt;As silver is melted in the midst of the furnace, so shall ye be melted in the midst thereof; and ye&lt;br /&gt;shall know that I the LORD have poured out my fury upon you.&lt;br /&gt;And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,&lt;br /&gt;Son of man, say unto her, Thou art the land that is not cleansed, nor rained upon in the day of&lt;br /&gt;indignation.&lt;br /&gt;There is a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof, like a roaring lion ravening the prey;&lt;br /&gt;they have devoured souls; they have taken the treasure and precious things; they have made her&lt;br /&gt;many widows in the midst thereof. (America is an exact replica of Israel. Notice the word&lt;br /&gt;conspiracy.)&lt;br /&gt;Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no&lt;br /&gt;difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewed difference between the&lt;br /&gt;unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among&lt;br /&gt;them.&lt;br /&gt;Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy&lt;br /&gt;souls, to get dishonest gain.&lt;br /&gt;And her prophets have daubed them with untempered morter, seeing vanity, and divining lies unto&lt;br /&gt;them, saying, Thus saith the Lord GOD, when the LORD hath not spoken. (The only true&lt;br /&gt;prophecy can be found in God's Holy Word, anyone else is not to be trusted.)&lt;br /&gt;The people of the land have used oppression, and exercised robbery, and have vexed the poor and&lt;br /&gt;needy: yea, they have oppressed the stranger wrongfully.&lt;br /&gt;And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before&lt;br /&gt;me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none.&lt;br /&gt;Therefore have I poured out mine indignation upon them; I have consumed them with the fire of&lt;br /&gt;my wrath: their own way have I recompensed upon their heads, saith the Lord GOD.&lt;br /&gt;God's Word is the final authority. It is God's Holy Word on which we base our&lt;br /&gt;Constitution. Blackstone law, which was written using the Bible as the guide on how to rule&lt;br /&gt;a nation, demands that we the people be free. This is the freedom that the pilgrims came to&lt;br /&gt;America for. The same freedom that the South was fighting for. What the Revolutionary&lt;br /&gt;war was all about. How Germany was before the post -World War I era.&lt;br /&gt;Speaking of Germany, it was England who was responsible for the fall of Germany's&lt;br /&gt;freedom to the rise of Nationalism, Nazism, Fascism at it's finest, a whole lot like&lt;br /&gt;Communism. They did it via the Treaty of Versailles, which broke the German's back; just&lt;br /&gt;like they are breaking the American people's backs today. via taxation, high inflation, land&lt;br /&gt;tax, (which is an abomination unto God) licensing, insurance and unlawful fines and&lt;br /&gt;seizures.&lt;br /&gt;Deu 19:14 Thou shalt not remove thy neighbour's landmark, which they of old time have set in&lt;br /&gt;thine inheritance, which thou shalt inherit in the land that the LORD thy God giveth thee to&lt;br /&gt;possess it.&lt;br /&gt;Deu 20:6 And what man is he that hath planted a vineyard, and hath not yet eaten of it? let him&lt;br /&gt;also go and return unto his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man eat of it.&lt;br /&gt;Pro 23:10 Remove not the old landmark; and enter not into the fields of the fatherless:&lt;br /&gt;Don't pay your land taxes and our government breaks God's laws against you.. Even Rome knew better&lt;br /&gt;then to tax it's own citizens.&lt;br /&gt;“Lev 19:13 Thou shalt not defraud thy neighbour, neither rob him: the wages of him that is hired&lt;br /&gt;shall not abide with thee all night until the morning. Yet they write tickets for fines to rob you&lt;br /&gt;of your money!&lt;br /&gt;Lev 25:17 Ye shall not therefore oppress one another; but thou shalt fear thy God: for I am the&lt;br /&gt;LORD your God.&lt;br /&gt;And God's law says:&lt;br /&gt;Deu 7:25 The graven images of their gods shall ye burn with fire: thou shalt not desire the silver&lt;br /&gt;or gold that is on them, nor take it unto thee, lest thou be snared therein: for it is an abomination&lt;br /&gt;to the LORD thy God.&lt;br /&gt;I will wrap it up with this: The Sheriff's graven image is the pentagram! AOL's image is the&lt;br /&gt;all seeing eye, Some only worship money, others the heavenly host, others indulges in&lt;br /&gt;forbidden sexual pleasures. Witchcraft has a very strong influence in the churches, world&lt;br /&gt;and nation wide. Debauchery is consider fun for the free; living people whereas, people&lt;br /&gt;who are given to such fleshly pleasures are damned because they will not repent and turn&lt;br /&gt;away from their sins and hell is no joke.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5196052296126723727-8470240715867617548?l=johntimothyvian.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/feeds/8470240715867617548/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5196052296126723727&amp;postID=8470240715867617548' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/8470240715867617548'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/8470240715867617548'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/2011/07/my-ideas.html' title='My Ideas'/><author><name>John T.

Gregory Anderson)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are powerful men seeking to destroy the basic foundations of our liberty.  They have been quite successful in their plans so far.  They are disrupting the family, corrupting our governments destroying morality, and attacking religious faith and religious freedom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Their objective is to "...eliminate liberty--economic, political, and religious--and establish in its place the most widespread and complete totalitarian system ever to oppress mankind.  These men have been working under such perfect disguise that many Americans have not been able to recognize them or their methods."  ["Freeman Digest" May, 1978 p.53.]  They scheme and plan, manipulate and destroy.  They use crime and murder, lies and fear.  They are not bound by law, for they control most of the judgment seats.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With enough study, it is possible to learn the goals of these power brokers from their own documents.  Their goal is worldwide control with themselves in charge.  They fully intend to control all governments, control the money, control the military, control the courts, destroy all religions except those that actually teach evil rather than good, and control access to food and medicine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They have a large measure of control over many of these things now.  If they gain full control, we will have little recourse except to do what they say, unless we have prepared well in advance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How can a group of individuals so dictate the events of the world?  Many times a government creates a crisis, then offers the "solution"--a solution that exchanges one more of our freedoms for some version of government-enforced safety and security.  Our response to these crises has become conditioned.  We turn to government to take care of us, and they do--at the price of our liberty.  When the crisis appears to be worldwide, we turn to a worldwide government, thus playing right into their hands.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Prophet Hosea declared "my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge."  [Hosea 4:6.]  This summary has been prepared to offer a basic knowledge of the methods being used to obtain control of people and nations.  It is hoped that this knowledge will assist us to better uphold correct principles that support the inalienable rights given to all people by God, and oppose programs and proposals that violate these principles.  It is recognized that the U.S. Constitution was divinely inspired by God for the very purpose of protecting these inalienable rights.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are several areas that these powerful men seek to control.  They are listed and a brief explanation is given of each:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• GOVERNMENT: The objective is to create a single government with power to rule the people of the world, sometimes referred to as a new world order.  All People will be ruled by the same laws, judicial system, monetary system, religious worship, and armed forces.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Every President and Secretary of State since Woodrow Wilson has been a member of a group which is actively pursuing the goal of obliterating national boundaries and establishing a single world government.  Known as the Council on Foreign Relations, this group is the American branch of a society which originated in England.  David Rockefeller serves as it's Chairman, George Bush is a past Chairman, and Bill Clinton was also a member.  [The Shadows of Power, James Perloff, 1988]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The effort to achieve this goal is aided by the media, since every major media {newspaper, radio, television, and communications network} is owned by a member or associate.  ["FREE" 'The CFR/Trilateral Connection' 1991]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At a cost of $10 million to the U.S. taxpayers, the Rockefeller Foundation has developed a "New States Constitution" that is intended to replace the constitution that we now have.  This document does not have a Bill of Rights, does not include the right to own firearms, and does not protect freedom of religion.  It uses the term "national emergency" 134 times.  [A Review &amp;amp; Commentary on Rexford E. Tugwells' book "The Emerging Constitution", by Col. Curtis B. Dall &amp;amp; E. Stanley Rittenhouse]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Listed here are a series of Executive Orders already approved which authorize the President to call a national emergency, and thereafter authorize the Federal Emergency Management Agency to mobilize other agencies to implement rationing and/or confiscation of public and private property==including food, guns, precious metals, businesses, homes, etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;•EXECUTIVE ORDERS•&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A. EO 10995 provides for the takeover of the communications media.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;B. EO 10997 provides for the takeover of all electric power, petroleum, gas and other fuels and minerals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;C. EO 10998 provides for the takeover of all food resources and the nation's farms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;D. EO 10999 provides for the takeover of all modes of transportation, control of highways, seaports etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;E. EO 11000 provides for mobilization of all civilians into work brigades under government supervision.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;F. EO 11001 provides for government takeover of all health and welfare functions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;G. EO 11002 designates the postmaster general to operate national registration of all persons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;H. EO 11003 provides for the government to takeover airports and aircraft.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I. EO 11004 provides for the Housing and Finance Authority to relocate communities, designate areas to be abandoned and establish new locations for populations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;J. EO 11005 provides for the government to take over railroads, inland waterways and public storage facilities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All these Executive Orders were combined into one Executive Order 11490, which was signed by President Richard Nixon on October 28, 1969.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On Sept. 26, 1961, Congress passed Public Law 87-297 which calls for arms control and the disarmament of the American people at the determination of the President.  Legislation which has recently been signed into law and legislation now pending in Congress is moving toward the completion of this goal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On April 2, 1992 the U.S. Senate voted unanimously for SB 1425, which ratified the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.  This Placed the human rights clause of the United Nations Charter in a superior position to our constitutional Bill of Rights, since the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled in Missouri v. Holland that a treaty supersedes the constitution.  The acceptance of this treaty places judgment of American citizens under the umbrella of the United Nations and the world courts, where trials are not by a jury of our peers and judgments are not based on inalienable rights given to us by God and protected by the U.S. Constitution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• MONETARY:  "A single currency, a single monetary policy, and a single authority issuing the currency and directing the monetary policy." {"Foreign Affairs," Fall 1984, Richard Cooper}&lt;br /&gt;In 1913 the U.S. Congress, in violation of the Constitution, turned control of the monetary system of the United States over to a privately owned organization of 12 individuals, 11 of whom are not citizens of the United States.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Misleadingly called the Federal Reserve, this group manipulates the money supply and controls the debt of nations.  This gives them the wealth and power to dictate the economic conditions of the world.  [Secrets of the Federal Reserve, Eustice Mullins]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A plan has been advanced by these men and their international partners to bring all nations under a single rule, with themselves in charge.  By creating economic crises and the collapse of a nation's economy, they force those nations in debt to them to trade their assets-gold, natural resources, and land-for the backing of the International Monetary Fund, which they created and control.  Once they own a nation's land and resources, they own and control that nation.  [Ambushed, "Insider Report", Larry Abraham, p.12]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They have made much progress toward this goal.  Already every nation in the world is backed by the International Monetary Fund except the United States.  Brazil, Argentina, Costa Rica, and other countries have been forced to trade assets and land to exonerate their debt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The specific plan to bring the U.S. under this monolithic control includes economic disruption, the collapse of more banks, and national bankruptcy.  They believe under these conditions, most Americans will clamor for the "help" they offer, willingly trading our nation's land and resources for the backing of the International Monetary Fund to bail us out of our predicament.  Their stated deadline to accomplish this goal is the year 2000.  Many close observers believe it will take place much sooner.  [Ambushed, "Insider Report". Larry Abraham p.12]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another method of obtaining control of a nation and it's lands is being accomplished in the United States with the help of the environmentalists.  Wilderness areas are set aside, transferred to the Nature Conservancy, and then to the Federal Reserve, placing those lands under the direct control of these same individuals.  [Ambushed, "Insider Report", Larry Abraham, p. 15-16]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is worth noting that the European countries recently met in the Netherlands and agreed to a single currency for all of Europe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• MILITARY:  The plan is to control the armed forces of the world.  The world has been divided into 10 regions.  A country may do whatever it chooses within the confines of that region, but if it oversteps it's bounds it will be disciplined by the United Nations armed forces, economic forces, and judicial forces.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prior to the conflict in Kuwait a meeting was held to discuss the possibilities of a country that the combined forces of the United Nations could seize upon in the name of humanity to stamp out oppression and to show the strength of a world army.  In early 1990 the American Ambassador to Iraq, April Glaspie, "had assured Saddam Hussein directly that the United States would take no action if he decided to invade Kuwait."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was agreed to cause another war similar in scale to the Iraqi war within 5 years, to keep the armed forces in focus and to remind the countries of the world of the power of the coalition forces.  [Minutes of Bilderberger meeting, Baden-Baden Germany, August 1991, reported by James P. Tucker Jr.]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As preparation for war was being made, Congress signed a treaty with the United Nations making George Bush the commander and chief of the coalition forces.  Because the Supreme Court has ruled that a treaty takes precedence over the constitution, this treaty gave the President the power to declare war without meeting the Constitutional requirement of approval by Congress.  This allows the president to unilaterally commit U.S. armed forces to United Nations wars all over the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• JUDICIAL:  The purpose is to place the world under a single judicial review to administer "justice" to the world.  The World Court has no juries and is not bound by the individual rights protected by the U.S. Constitution.  It will judge for "atrocities" against the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since the U.S. Supreme Court has {erroneously} ruled in Missouri v. Holland that treaties supersede the Constitution, every treaty the U.S. signs with the United Nations places interpretation and judgment in the jurisdiction of the World Court  The Covenant on Political and Civil Rights, numerous environmental treaties, trade agreements, and other treaties have expanded jurisdiction to include economic, political, and environmental "crimes."  Proposed treaties such as the "U.N. Covenant on the Rights of the Child" would expand the scope of that control to the very core of our society, the family.  [Global Tyranny...Step by Step, William Jasper]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• RELIGION:  The plan is to establish a single humanistic religion for all the world.  "Christianity will be outlawed and believers will face discrimination, persecution, and possibly elimination or imprisonment; there will be a new religion, first the worship of man, humanism, and then Satanism; and everyone will either accept the new religion or depart from that society."  [The New World Order, Ralph A. Epperson, 1990, p.xx]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Cults" have been so discredited by the actions of some that few people question when a "cult" is verbally or even physically attacked by government.  It is notable that those who are seeking to take control have redefined it to suit their purposes.  Their definition is "anyone or any group [which] believes in the resurrection of Jesus Christ, and that Christ came back alive from the grave."  ["A New Look at the New World Order," Kimber, audio tape]  This definition will justify ostracism of Christians, while encouraging the growth of humanistic, occult, Satanistic religions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The core of the leaders of the secret society belong to an occult religion called the Illuminati.  All organized witchcraft and all occult brotherhoods belong to it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The occult is the religion of the organization, not the organization itself.  It is Luciferian in nature.  [The Illuminati, Myron C. Fagan]  The Illuminati uses a variety of tools.  A few are discussed below.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• Sorcery:  In the New Testament, John uses the word sorcery in describing modern-day Babylon and the tools of the Beast.  "The Greek word he uses is Pharmakeia, from which the word pharmacy is derived.  Pharmakeia indicates the use of drugs, elixirs, and contraceptive potions associated with the occult.  When freely accepted, these narcotics addict, desensitize, and deceive the nations, resulting in blindness and the inability to change.  The use of drugs, simple and potent, is the same means by which the Mother of Abominations is able to deceive the nations."  [Opening the Seven Seals, Richard D. Draper. p.109]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• Immorality:  Whether it be intimate relationships outside of the bonds of marriage, or pornography, abortion, prostitution, homosexuality, or any other form, immorality breaks down the character and fiber of an individual and destroys the foundation upon which freedom is based.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• Idolatry:  The new world order is seeking to establish a unified religion with generic beliefs, devoid of morals.  This leads to idolatry, or the worship of something other than God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• Physical:  The objective, as stated by one of their main spokesmen, Henry Kissinger, is to take control of food and oil.  By controlling oil they control the militaries of the nations of the world.  By controlling food, they can control individuals.  [Christ vs. Satan, Oliver Demille, p.12]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has promoted monopoly of medicines by certain very wealthy men.  The recent proposals to require vitamins to be sold only with a prescription would extend that reach.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Current popular proposals to restrict access to health care without government control would go to achieve this goal.  Stiff penalties, including jail terms, for anyone who seeks or provides health care outside the government system are an integral part of the plan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Global 2000 Report" written by former Secretary of State Cyrus Vance declares that the world needs to be depopulated"..by means of limited wars in the advanced countries, and by means of starvation and disease in the Third World Countries, the death of 3 billion people {described as "useless eaters"} by the year 2000."  This report was accepted and approved for action by President Carter, for and on behalf of the United States Government, and accepted by Edwin Muskie, then Secretary of State.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Under the terms of the Global 2000 Report, the population of the United States is to be reduced by 100 million by the year 2050.  [Conspirator's Hierarchy, Dr. J. Coleman, p.22]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These matters are serious.  We can only prepare for them if we know about them.  And once we know about them, we are obligated to act.  "A man must not only stand for the right principles, he must also fight for them.  Those who fight for principles can be proud of the friends they've gained and the enemies they've earned.  We face days ahead that will test the moral and physical sinews of all of us.  Those who hesitate to get into this fight because it is controversial fail to realize that life's decisions should be based on principles, not on polls."  [Kzra Taft Benson, Secretary of Agriculture, Eisenhower Administration]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We all need to learn the truth; it is truth that makes us free.  May God grant us the wisdom and desire to search deeper and learn more, and the foresight to prepare without fear.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;This article is distributed by permission from the original distributor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Re-distributed by:&lt;br /&gt;TvF OUTREACH&lt;br /&gt;P.O.

The decision was issued on January 18, 2011, and the Court did not even explain the decision (Docket No. 10-632, 10-633, and 10-690). One word decisions: DENIED.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Presented with this information and massive proof that was not contested in any manner by the accused judges, at least six of the justices voted to deny the petitions:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"There is no legal or factual basis whatsoever for the decisions of the lower courts in this matter. These rulings were issued for corrupt reasons. Many of the judges in the Northern District of Georgia and the Eleventh Circuit are corrupt and violate laws and rules, as they have done in this case. The Supreme Court must recognize this Petition as one of the most serious matters ever presented to this Court."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The key questions answered negatively by the U.S. Supreme Court was:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Whether federal courts must be stopped from operating corruptly and ignoring all laws, rules, and facts."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By denying the petitions, SCOTUS has chosen to sanction corruption by federal judges and to allow federal judges to void sections of the Constitutional at will.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;William M. Windsor has been involved in legal action in the federal courts in Atlanta since 2006. Windsor was named a defendant in a civil lawsuit (1:06-CV-0714-ODE) in which Christopher Glynn of Maid of the Mist in Niagara Falls, swore under oath that Windsor did a variety of things including the crimes of theft and bribery. Windsor stated under oath that Christopher Glynn made it up and lied about absolutely everything that he swore. Windsor then obtained deposition testimony from Glynn and the other managers of the Maid of the Mist boat ride, and they admitted, under oath, that charges against Windsor were not true.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Despite this undeniable proof, 32-year federal Judge Orinda D. Evans declared that the grandfather of three should not have fought the lawsuit, and she forced him to pay a fortune in legal fees of Maid of the Mist. Windsor appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, but federal judges Dubina, Hull, and Fay rubber-stamped Judge Evans' ruling. Windsor then took his appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court where the justices said the appeal was not worthy of their consideration (cert denied).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After attempting to get the case reopened with new evidence that proved fraud upon the courts and obstruction of justice, Judge Evans and Judge William S. Duffey committed a variety of crimes and violations of Constitutional rights, as did judges with the Eleventh Circuit. All of this was detailed for the Supreme Court.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Windsor says: "I have discovered that the federal judges in Atlanta, Georgia, Washington, DC, and the justices of the United States Supreme Court function like common criminals intentionally making bogus rulings against honest people while covering up the crimes of their fellow judges. I have been contacted by people from all over the country and around the world with their stories of judicial corruption with judges all over the U.S.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"My charges have been totally ignored by the United States Attorney's Office, the FBI, and Congress. I do not believe there is a shred of decency, honesty, or Constitutional rights in our federal courts. In my opinion, we now live in a police state. Judges are free to do absolutely anything they want. Our laws are meaningless. Your life savings can be stolen by a federal judge, and they have no risk in violating every law in the books.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"In my opinion, this is the most serious issue that our country has ever faced. Our rights have been stolen. And the mainstream media refuses to cover this story because they are afraid of the judges. Heaven help us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I believe our only hope in America is if the masses become aware of what is taking place. I am writing an expose, and my book will be available at Borders, Barnes &amp;amp; Noble, and on amazon.com soon. The publisher will decide if the title is Lawless America or Screwed, Glued, and Tattooed."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For more information, see www.LawlessAmerica.com.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Contact: William Windsor, +1-770-578-1094, bill@lawlessamerica.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SOURCE William M.

Weishaupt was a Professor of Jewish Canon Law at the University of Ingolstadt in Bavaria, Germany. He was born to Jewish parents and later “converted” or more correctly, “infiltrated” Roman Catholicism. He became a high-ranking member of The Order Of The Jesuits, whom he subsequently left to form his very own organization at the clear behest of the newly formed “House Of Rothschild.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was the Jewish Weishaupt's belief that only a chosen few could qualify for enough "illumination" to guide and rule the world. The problem was, where could he find enough intellectual “light bearers” to start the ball rolling? He subsequently found them in various lodges and orders of the day, such as the various Masonic lodges, the Rosicrucian Order and other legitimate and sincere orders of antiquity. This is confirmed yet again by Edith Starr-Miller in her classic, “Occult Theocracy:” “As the organization of the Illuminati developed, so did its ambitions, which ended in a plot to subvert Freemasonry to its aim of world domination by any and all means ……. After obtaining control of certain Masonic Lodges, Weishaupt and his associates recklessly vaunted their growing power.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But all this didn't happen without reprisal. Many members of the lodges and various orders, realising that they and their harmless societies and organizations had been duly infiltrated, warned Weishaupt to discontinue his activities. Fortunately for Weishaupt, Thomas Jefferson, in 1784, had recently been named the United States Ambassador to France. Jefferson, an avowed Mason, favoured Weishaupt's “New Order” and became sympathetic to his cause. This “New Order” was now guaranteed to continue, where it eventually dominated all others and became known as the “Order of the Illuminati.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While casually flicking through Edith Starr-Miller’s classic “Occult Theocracy” recently, I noticed that the author clearly reveals an interesting Jesuit/Jewish link - where the third General of the Jesuits, after its Spanish founder Inigo de Loyala, was that of a Belgian Jew named Eberhard Mercurian. He held the title for 7 years between 1573 to 1580 and would no doubt have had a significant and consequential Judaising influence on the Jesuit order, and hence upon the Roman Catholic Church. On P313 she writes: “From the Jesuit College at Ingolstadt in 1776 is said to have issued the sect known as ‘The Illuminati of Bavaria’ founded by Adam Weishaupt, its nominal founder.” In fact, some of the most influential Jesuits in history, such as Francisco Ribera and Emanuel Lacunza were Jews. Seeing that many of the Jesuit doctrines are similar to those found in the Babylonian Talmud, is it possible that the RCC is simply another “Agent Provocateur” that the Pharisaic serpents have used yet again to Paganise and destroy true Christianity through the vain ‘traditions of men?”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Illuminati, under the renegade Weishaupt, gradually became an openly destructive Luciferic society, with everything in its doctrines and rituals the exact antithesis of Christianity. It begins by enticing its victim into the first few initial degrees by the most beautiful altruistic and fraternal ideals and noble aspirations possible. However it gradually and almost imperceptively weaves a net of murderous Satanism as it descends into the higher degrees.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Weishaupt wanted a deistic republic of truly global dimensions, even if it brought about violent worldwide revolution and rivers of blood. His “benevolent dictatorship” had six main points dealing with the abolition of:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Ordered or nationalistic governments in the form of monarchies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Private property.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Inheritance rights.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Patriotism to nationalist causes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Social order in families, sexual prohibition laws and all moral codes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. All religious disciplines based on faith in a living God, as opposed to faith in nature, man and reason.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(It’s interesting that this is almost word-for-word from Karl Marx’s THE COMMUNIST MANIFESTO and that these six points are also perfectly consistent with the Protocols in general, once again proving their legitimacy).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Karl Marx, the Jewish radical who inspired Lenin and Trotsky with his communist theories, was secretly a High Priest of Satan (see Richard Wurmbrand's book, Marx and Satan). Shown here in his official portrait, Marx is giving an enigmatic Masonic hand sign (see Richardson's Monitor of Freemasonry&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ILLUMINISTS MARX AND FREUD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;History records that "Karl" Moses Mordecai Marx Levy (1818-1883) was born on May 5, 1818, in the city of Trier in the Rhine Province of Prussia (now Germany). His mother, Herietta Pressburg, was from Holland and like Karl's father, was Jewish and also a descendent of a long line of rabbi's. Marxists view the family as the primary obstacle to dismantling nation-states and thus establishing a collectivist Utopia. The social and political health of a nation-state is inversely proportional to the degree of racial, lingual, and religious diversity within it. In other words, the greater the “diversity” in a nation-state the less stable and enduring it is - a principle well understood by Communists everywhere. Marxism is less an economic theory, than it is a state of mind from which certain theories and practices have evolved. This state of mind is maternal and group-centered, and includes the view that Man's natural state is collectivist, or communal. Individual needs and wants must be subjugated to the needs of the community or state - to the needs of a borderless world or “Global Village.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 1841, Moses Hess, brought Marx into a society called the League of the Just, and taught him collectivist ideologies. Hess wrote: “Dr. Marx, that is the name of my idol, is still a very young man who will give medieval religion and politics their death blow....” [The portable Karl Marx, page 22] George Jung, another friend of Marx, wrote in the same year: “Marx will surely chase God from His heaven, and will even sue Him.” [Mystery 666, page 144]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bukharin, one of Marx's associates in the First International, was an anarchist and by all accounts, an ardent Satanist. He wrote: “Satan is the first free thinker and saviour of the world. He frees Adam and impresses the seal of humanity and liberty on his forehead, by making him disobedient.” Thus in 1917, when the second revolution took place and the Bolshevik government came to power in Russia, the hand that led the people may have been the hand of Lenin, with the words of Karl Marx, but the voice was unmistakably that of Satan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Marxism, society's past needs to be repaired. In the psychobabble nonsense of Freudianism, individual pasts need to be repaired. In both worlds, these god-like Jewish thinkers believed that their deity hides things necessary for human perfection from all men from the beginning of time and that only through “extrication” of society (Marx) and of the unconscious mind (Freud) could the reality of the forbidden fruit of “perfection” be achieved. Thus, both philosophers failed to extricate themselves from their own kin’s perversion of history in forging their ideas. So, instead of creating new sciences of economics and psychology based on a confirmed reality, Marx and Freud simply believed in their own vanities and mixed in some excerpts of the Talmudic World View they grew up with, blending them with subjective observations of a fabricated history to produce a “New Eden” for their gullible and largely neurotic clients.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By applying their Jewish religious learning into Talmudic ways of thinking, Marx and Freud cleverly destroyed the objective principles of Christianity into which the world had been gradually evolving for centuries. Caught between the primary conflict of a finite Christian morality together with common-sense Biblical ethics - versus the Judeo acceptance and promotion of deviation in all areas of life, both Marx and Freud committed the world to violent upheaval and dangerous hazards, the results of which have been utterly catastrophic with their full consequences yet to be revealed. Conflicts which from the creation of Adam until today, have been the result of man’s ambition to make himself equal with God, or like Nietzsche, to create God in his own image, or to proclaim, like Marx and Ben-Gurion, that there is no God and therefore man has no further need for moral laws.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Man thus demonstrates his disdain by propagating ideas of complete freedom from conscience, and to think and act in absolute disregard and opposition to all the well established and necessary/commonsense laws required for the maintenance of decent civil, moral and natural order. This has resulted in the environmental catastrophe, and global chaos we see all around us. Rebellious, self-glorifying ideas, which invariably lead to the mass worship of devilish leaders who advocate these insane theories and who, unfortunately, are keenly followed by the unthinking masses who are either stupid, shy or too proud to announce that the king really does have no clothes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PSYCHIATRY AS RELIGION&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The religion of psychiatry is mainly defined as related to human behavior and the brain, thus excluding the spirit or soul of man, even though “psych” means soul. Through this denial of the soul, psychiatry and all its associated evils, such as “psycho-therapy” are destroying the spirit of man and has become a powerful and respectable cult. With this failure to address the soul, psychiatry has no alternative but to view human beings as merely animals that can be trained. As a result, psychiatry has developed methods that can only be interpreted as a subtle form of brainwashing. This indoctrination has been so sweetly packaged that we barely notice psychiatry's true nature. Neither do most of us see how contrived words such as dyslexia and ADD, have been infused into our societal thought patterns so strongly that we've come to accept these as true "diseases." Psychiatry took over our society, first by infiltrating our schools and churches under the disguise of counseling. Since most people had problems and because both churches and schools deal with people’s problems, it was easy to convince church and school leaders that they had another tool to handle difficult situations. Leaders accepted the "free" tool paid for with our tax dollars. As a result psychiatry easily manipulated and penetrated all our institutions of learning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The dangers of psychiatry have even been recognized by some within it's own ranks such as psychiatrist Dr. Thomas Szasz, who long ago wrote: “The Myth of Mental Illness” and again in the 80's by William R. Coulson, Ph.D., from USIU (United States International University) School of Human Behaviour. Dr. Coulson addressed school boards throughout the country presenting the ominous message about drug education, values clarification and sex education programs he helped design for public schools along with Dr. Carl Rogers and Dr. Abraham Maslow. Dr. Coulson said that controlled studies had now proven that drug and sex education programs that he helped create, had the exact opposite effect. He said that values clarification programs surreptitiously placed in America's schools through the years - rather than teaching values, actually eroded and destroyed them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is another danger imposed by psychiatry that should concern everyone. It is the application of questionable psychiatric techniques and the availability of government psychiatrists that allows agencies such as the CIA and FBI to develop "psychological operations" (psy ops) programs. Some of these dangerous programs that were under the power of this psychic mumbo-jumbo included the infamous LSD experiments, the current MK ULTRA Mind Control program and the CIA's STARGATE program. These experiments could be considered unethical, illegal, unconstitutional and damaging to one's mental health, and is why psychiatry needs to be eradicated. It is destroying our society! It is an established cult that has mesmerized our nation in such a way, that to disagree with its techniques, outcomes, and programs is to be falsely accused of mental illness; as were tens of thousands of anti-government protestors and political dissidents that received virtual death sentences in the many Jewish run gulags of the “formerly communist” Soviet Union.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"We need a program of psychosurgery for political control of our society. The purpose is physical control of the mind. Everyone who deviates from the given norm can be surgically mutilated. "The individual may think that the most important reality is his own existence, but this is only his personal point of view. This lacks historical perspective. "Man does not have the right to develop his own mind. This kind of liberal orientation has great appeal. We must electrically control the brain. Some day armies and generals will be controlled by electric stimulation of the brain." Dr. Jose M.R. Delgado Director of Neuropsychiatry Yale University Medical School Congressional Record, No. 26, Vol. 118 February 24, 1974&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Copernicanism AND The Cataclysmic Impact On Every Field Of Modern Man’s Knowledge&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Christian Bible (and the Koran) both declare the earth to be motionless. The mathematical Copernican model says the earth rotates on an "axis," (at over 1000 MPH) orbits the sun, (at 30 times rifle bullet speed) and is whooshing around a galaxy (at 250 times rifle bullet speed) - all at the same time. Over the centuries, superstars in the physical sciences established the Copernican model as an unchallenged fact. Copernicanism is a concept that is protected in a bunker under a 50 foot thick ceiling of solid "scientific" concrete. It is meant to be impregnable. It is a concept that has become ensconced in men’s minds as an indestructible cornerstone of enlightened modern man’s knowledge. Virtually all people everywhere have been taught to believe - and do believe - that this concept is based on objective science and dispassionate secular reasoning, now long since freed from silly religious superstitions based on the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Indeed, it was this Copernican heliocentrism concept that gradually broke the back of Bible credibility as the source of Absolute Truth in Western Culture. Once the Copernican Revolution had conquered the physical sciences of Astronomy and Physics and put down deep roots in Universities and lower schools everywhere, it was only a matter of time until the Biological sciences launched the “Darwinian Revolution.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This embrace of Darwinism then quite predictably emboldened increasingly secular-minded mankind to further reject Biblical Absolutism and replace its teachings with yet more new "truths," in areas of learning having to do with economics and government. Thus was unsuccessful and floundering Marxism given new life. Marx openly tried to dedicate his own books to Darwin, exulting: "You have given me the basis for my system." Thus, the "Social Science" disciplines were born and began to make their contributions to the destruction of Bible credibility.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Marx’s less famous and under-rated benefactor, Friedrich Ingles, not only recognized the anti-Bible nature of Darwinism and Marxism, he - more than Marx or any of the rest of those early Communist revolutionaries - fully grasped the overriding importance of protecting the Copernican foundation of the envisioned New World Order from any and all attacks. He worked diligently to fortify against any lingering sporadic counter-attack against the Copernican foundation (by the Lutherans chiefly). He understood that the continued hardening of the Copernican paradigm into unchallengable "fact" status was absolutely essential to the success of Marxism. Engles wrote: "...one of the basic theses of dialectic materialism [Communism], is the inseparability of movement from matter...." (Anti-Communists, think on that a minute!!) Also: CHECK pp.25-27 in “THE EARTH IS NOT MOVING,” for this statement and for other quotations by Communist physicists and mathematicians about how mathematics were "created" and how Leninist theory "reconstructed the mathematical sciences" to rule out any non-moving (inert) body in the universe, i.e., to rule out the Biblical model of a stationary Earth at the centre of God’s Creation and simultaneously give atheism its "scientific" foundation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Notice then the progression after the conquest of the physical sciences, to the biological sciences, to the social sciences and thence to the behavioral sciences. Now enter Sigmund Freud from far left stage. Freud - thoroughly marinated in evolution’s juices and ready to turn every sexual perversion from the Talmud’s pages (HERE) into normal behaviour and world notoriety stated flatly: "Man is not different from, or better than, the animals." He also declared that "...science is no illusion. But it would be an illusion to suppose that we could get anywhere else what IT cannot give us."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lest today’s younger generation be unaware of the ineffably pervasive impact that Freud’s evolution-based, ostensibly secular "knowledge of the mind" witchcraft [i.e., psychology] has had, here are just a few assessments: "Sigmund Freud’s name is as cardinal in the history of human thought a Charles Darwin’s." "Few others in the history of the world have had a more profound influence on the way man thinks about himself." The very intellectual air we breathe has been infused with Freud’s categories of thought." No other thinker in modern times has had a comparable effect upon so many branches of knowledge." (Several revealing pages on Freud at this source: (HERE).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And too, lest we forget that the evolution-based revolutions sparked by the Darwin/Marx/Freud triumvirate in the late 1800’s were TOTALLY dependent on the previous success of the Copernican Revolution, consider the bottom line of what was happening over in the Physics and Astronomy Departments while Freud was at the university in Paris in the mid-1880’s: That bottom line is that the negative results of the Michelson-Morley interferometer experiments conducted in Europe and the U.S. in the 1880’s consistently showed no orbital motion of the Earth around the sun. No motion. Period. (Shades of Joshua: "Sun, stand THOU still!" [Jos.10:12])&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"...this unexpected result kept the scientific world long in perplexity....." wrote Hans Reichenbach in his insightful book “From Copernicus To Einstein.” He further noted: "This result, announced in 1887, dumfounded scientists...." ("Dumfounded" means "astonished, amazed, astounded, bewildered, confounded, flabbergasted, shocked and stunned".) This was serious stuff! The whole cult with its "science" idol was in jeopardy! Over three centuries of carefully layered propaganda and indoctrination had defeated, and all but buried the Bible’s account of a stationary Earth. The outer wall of the Bible’s claim to Truth had been battered down by radical members of the scientific priesthood. And now they were on the verge of breaking through the second line of defence with the Evolution battering ram. This breakthrough was designed to defeat and bury not only the Creation account of man created in the image of God, but the whole Creation scenario set out in the Bible. No Creation; no Garden of Eden; no Satan; no Temptation; no Fall; no need for Jesus Christ to redeem from the fallen condition.... What’s left of Christianity but a bunch of rituals and traditions?!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The long and the short of all this is that the science establishment was thrown into an absolute funk with a capital "F" by the interferometer experiments! The word "unthinkable" got a lot of exercise. World class scientists such as Poincare’, Maxwell, Lorentz, and FitzGerald heaved and sweated mightily to hold the establishment’s house of cards together - the situation was desperate!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then alas, in 1905, a saviour appeared. This saviour - this man who rescued the ruling theoretical science establishment from its potentially lethal enemy (The Truth!), this saviour - who advanced a theory of Relativity which seemingly ruled out forever any challenge to the Communist physics which forbade any inertia in the universe, was feted as usual with the full red carpet treatment, and parades and statues in capitols around the world. His name became synonymous with unequalled IQ-busting human intelligence. From a long list of great men and women at the end of the 20th Century, Einstein was chosen "Man of the Century". His crowning achievement? Why so glorified by a humanist/Jewish controlled media and education? Well, after all, he did rescue the Copernican foundation of all modern man’s "knowledge"! He deserved what he got from those who willingly gave to him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On pages 110-133 (and elsewhere) in “The Earth Is Not Moving,” one can see how the shenanigans posing as science that led to the secular canonization of Einstein developed. Suffice it to say here what the evidence plainly demonstrates:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) Einstein’s Relativity hypothesis rescued heliocentricity from the findings of over 200 experiments which showed that the earth was NOT moving.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) These experiments threatened to undo over 300 years of successful labour to transmute fictionized mathematics into the basis of modern science.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) Moreover, by threatening the Copernican Paradigm, i.e., the very foundation - the raison d' etre, of this successful transmutation, these experiments contained the deadly potential of thwarting the rooting process of Darwinism, Marxism, Freudianism, Einsteinism, and (later) Saganism. These isms were essential to victory in this spiritual warfare, which intended to get rid of the Biblical God, and especially His Son Jesus, and return to Paganism. Atheist philosopher Nietzsche summed up what was really at stake just before the experiments threatened the whole unfolding secular game plan: "God is dead", "We have killed Him with our science."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4) From F. Engles on, Communist (atheist) physics would allow nothing to be motionless in the universe, thereby "scientifically" ruling out the Biblically mandated stationary and immovable Earth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5) Einsteinian Relativity is anti-Biblical, but it is not a wholly secular concept. Indeed, it is an essential part of another "creation account" given in another "holy book", i.e., the Cabbala. This "holy book", with its 13th century Rabbinical concept of a "Big Bang-Expanding Universe" (HERE), is an instrument of another religion which, along with the Talmud, specifically targets the Bible and especially the New Testament of Jesus Christ for destruction.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6) It is a surpassingly interesting coincidence that the Cabbala also describes Relativity (!), Zionism, and Dispensationalism (HERE &amp;amp; HERE).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anti-Bible, Anti-Christ Cabbalism/Talmudism rules modern man’s "knowledge."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"...profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called." (I Timothy 6:20).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;THE ILLUMINATI AND COMMUNISM&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From the time of Christ, around 2000 years ago, the leaders of Pharisaic Judaism have ever warred against Christianity. Around the middle ages, an alliance between the secret societies of “Pharisonry” and the leaders of Judaism coalesced into the “Permanent Revolution” or “The Conspiracy” – in the final revolt against the Divine Plan for Order established by Christ, and conspiring against white Christian civilization.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first time these diabolical vultures called “Jews” saw a land base to own and contaminate was in 1917, when their funded agents (local gangsters) assassinated the entire Romanov family and established the first Communist country in Russia. This was the beginning of the ultimate disaster for civilization and decency. This new Communist government was always funded, backed and supported from the Judmas (Judeo-Masonic) conspirators in New York, Washington D.C. and London (See “National Suicide” by Anthony Sutton, as well as numerous other well documented works). As Fr. Denis Fahey put it in: “The Rulers of Russia”: “The book shows Bolshevism (Communism) in its proper perspective, namely, as the most recent development in the age-long struggle waged by the Jewish Nation against the Supernatural Messias, our Lord Jesus Christ, and His Mystical Body . . .”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The intention of Communism was to break up the old order in the more incorrigible parts of the world with the utmost brutality. This commenced in Russia, where “anti-Semitism” was made a crime punishable by death as soon as the Communists took over. In fact when Lenin, financed by the International Bankers, overthrew the Russian government and established the first totalitarian dictatorship in 1917, the flag was red with a hammer and sickle, over which was superimposed the Star of David. Communism also smashed the old order in China behind the Moscow-educated murderer Mao Tse Tung, as it was done in Eastern Europe after the Communist takeover after World War II.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By 1989, it was decided that the task of Communism was complete. The old order was sufficiently broken up and/or corrupted, where the New World Order could now be quietly announced. Suddenly the New York media was cheerleading for the crowds demonstrating against Communism in Eastern Europe and Russia, and – instead of being mowed down by tanks as in the past – the Communists mostly gave way and all became “social democrats,” where they continued to figure prominently in the running of the formerly communist countries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let’s look at what two world leaders had to say about the REAL goal of the Permanent Revolution, which used Communism as only one of its masks. The first quote is from the first (and, at the time of this quote, former) Prime Minister of Israel, David Ben Gurion, given to “Look Magazine” in 1962, January 16th, edition:“The image of the world in 1987 as traced in my imagination: The Cold War will be a thing of the past. Internal pressure of the constantly growing intelligentsia in Russia for more freedom and the pressure of the masses for raising their living standards may lead to a gradual democratization of the Soviet Union. On the other hand, the increasing influence of the workers and farmers, and the rising political importance of men of science, may transform the United States into a welfare state with a planned economy. Western and Eastern Europe will become a federation of autonomous states having a Socialist and democratic regime. With the exception of the USSR as a federated Eurasian state, all other continents will become united in a world alliance, at whose disposal will be an international police force. All armies will be abolished, and there will be no more wars. In Jerusalem, the United Nations (a truly United Nations) will build a Shrine of the Prophets to serve the federated union of all continents; this will be the seat of the Supreme Court of Mankind, to settle all controversies among the federated continents, as prophesied by Isaiah.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ben Gurion missed calling the end of the Cold War by only two years, as it actually “ended” in 1989. His optimistic dream is becoming a real nightmare for Israel and the world, as his party, Judeo-masonry, continues to strive against the real order of the world, against the Kingship of Christ as explained clearly in the writings of Fr. Denis Fahey. But few can doubt that Ben Gurion was part of the inner circle that devised the game plan, as well as had the game plan in his possession. Next world leader, Pope Benedict XV in 1920, offers a more realistic view of where the program of Communist/Judeo-Masonry was heading: “The advent of a Universal Republic, which is longed for by all the worst elements of disorder, and confidently expected by them, is an idea which is ripe for execution. From this Republic, based on the principles of absolute equality of men and community of possessions, would be banished all national distinctions, nor in it would the authority of a father over his children, or of the public power over the citizens, or of God over human society, be any longer acknowledged. If these ideas are put into practice there will inevitably followed a reign of unheard-of terror.” From “Moto Proprio, Bonem Sanc,” July 25, 1920.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Note how Pope Benedict XV sees right through Communism, which was then raging in Russia, and was merely a disguise - the “destroyer’s” mask, worn by the World Revolution of Judeo-Masonry. He prophetically sees that, after the destruction phase was over, Judeo-Masonry would call their hoped-for World Rule a “Universal Republic”, never for what it really was, that of a Communist tyranny.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let’s put it another way: the goal was always for the International Bankers and the Monopoly Capitalists, to put in practice the Talmudic principle that the Jews deserve to own everything, and the goyim (non-Jews) deserve to own nothing. So Communism either smashed all the enemies of the International Banksters, or served as a threat to keep the Free World off balance until the Banksters in the “free” countries could use their incredible money issuing power to take over the media and the governments of the so-called “free” countries. The Talmudic Supremists did all this in conjunction with the upper echelons of Freemasonry of which The Independent Order of the B’nai B’rith is TODAY its supreme governing body. "The Communists are against religion (Christianity), and they seek to destroy religion; yet, when we look deeper into the nature of Communism, we see that it is essential nothing else than our religion (Judaism)." (A Program for the Jews and Humanity, Harry Waton, p. 138).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you have got this far, only the terminally blind will deny that Marxist/Talmudic Jews wield immense power and influence worldwide, especially in the United States and where the so-called "Jewish lobby" is a decisive factor in the slavish support for Israel. As long as this incredibly powerful religious influence remains entrenched, there will be no end to the systematic and deliberate distortion of current affairs and history, the Jewish-Zionist domination of the U.S. political system, Zionist/Nazi style oppression of the Palestinians and the Israeli threat to world peace.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;READ MUCH MORE&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jewish Killers Murder 66 Million in Soviet Gulags&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is the New World Order Jewish?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are Jewish People Better Than Others?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Judaizers Need Light of Truth&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How the Illuminati is Destroying America!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Illuminati Exposed&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is the New World Order Jewish?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gloria Steinem: How the CIA Used Feminism to Destabilize Society&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;American Communism and the Making of Women's Liberation&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;American Communism and Feminism&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--------------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Comment from webmaster of Jesus-is-Savior.com...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am not anti-Jewish in any way. I am however anti-sin, anti-lies and anti-corruption. Yes, the Jews are God's people, but most have rejected their Messiah. Most surely are NOT God's children. Only by confessing one's sinful condition and asking Jesus Christ to forgive those sins can anyone become BORN-AGAIN. You are ONLY a child of God if you've been born-again. Most Jews are arrogant, claiming that they are automatically going to heaven (which is a lie). God is NO respecter of persons. It's Jesus or hell, turn or burn!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a consequence of Israel's continued rebellion against God, they have become a very stiff-necked people (just as they were back in the Bible). Satan is the god of this world (2nd Corinthians 4:4) and there are evil people of both Jewish and Gentile origin. As you've read in the article above, the Illuminati has Jewish roots, as well as communism and the New World Order. Are the Jews evil and bad? No, we're all evil and bad...that's why Jesus came to die on the cross for all OUR sins. The Jews are definitely not the innocent victims of history (as commonly portrayed by history books), but are guilty of mass murder themselves, just as are the people of Japan, China and the U.S. History is filled with much lies, the average person is completely brainwashed concerning history.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am NOT anti-Jewish, but it is clear that the evils behind the new World Order are Jews, more specifically elite Jewish bankers. It is not a matter of being Jewish or not, it it a matter of evil power-hungry monsters wanting to destroy America as a means to an end...a New World Order.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Was there a holocaust? Yes, it was horrible, Jewish Communist leaders Lenin and Trotsky murdered an estimated 66 million innocent People (mostly Christians) under the Bolshevik totalitarian system. Not one person has ever been arrested or held accountable for all the tens-of-millions of people murdered, in the face of irrefutable testimonies and evidence. Why is the news media so silent? Is it because the news media is predominantly Jewish owned and controlled? You decide. Even 60 years later, Germany is still scorned and berated for the murder of millions of innocent Jews...but what about the holocaust victims of the Soviet gulags? Don't they deserve a museum too? What about the millions of Cambodian victims of Nixon and Kissinger? Read The Soviet Gulags&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most people are sheeple, ignorant and so easily controlled by the news media. As a result of 911, all the American people need to hear is that something is about to blow up and they'll sell their souls to the government. I challenge you to seek the truth, and then proclaim it near and far. This is our duty as Christians (Psalm 94:16).&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5196052296126723727-5938227787512098624?l=johntimothyvian.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/False%20Religions/Illuminati/illuminati_and_communism.htm' title='The Illuminati and COMMUNISM!'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/feeds/5938227787512098624/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5196052296126723727&amp;postID=5938227787512098624' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/5938227787512098624'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/5938227787512098624'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/2011/01/illuminati-and-communism.html' title='The Illuminati and COMMUNISM!'/><author><name>John T.

We are not yet living in a total police state, but it is fast approaching. The seeds of future tyranny have been sown, and many of our basic protections against government have been undermined. The atmosphere since 2001 has permitted Congress to create whole new departments and agencies that purport to make us safer- always at the expense of our liberty. But security and liberty go hand-in-hand. Members of Congress, like too many Americans, don’t understand that a society with no constraints on its government cannot be secure. History proves that societies crumble when their governments become more powerful than the people and private institutions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunately, the new intelligence bill passed by Congress two weeks ago moves us closer to an encroaching police state by imposing the precursor to a full-fledged national ID card. Within two years, every American will need a “conforming” ID to deal with any federal agency-- including TSA at the airport.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Undoubtedly many Americans and members of Congress don’t believe America is becoming a police state, which is reasonable enough. They associate the phrase with highly visible symbols of authoritarianism like military patrols, martial law, and summary executions. But we ought to be concerned that we have laid the foundation for tyranny by making the public more docile, more accustomed to government bullying, and more accepting of arbitrary authority- all in the name of security. Our love for liberty above all has been so diminished that we tolerate intrusions into our privacy that would have been abhorred just a few years ago. We tolerate inconveniences and infringements upon our liberties in a manner that reflects poorly on our great national character of rugged individualism. American history, at least in part, is a history of people who don’t like being told what to do. Yet we are increasingly empowering the federal government and its agents to run our lives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Terror, fear, and crises like 9-11 are used to achieve complacency and obedience, especially when citizens are deluded into believing they are still a free people. The loss of liberty, we are assured, will be minimal, short-lived, and necessary. Many citizens believe that once the war on terror is over, restrictions on their liberties will be reversed. But this war is undeclared and open-ended, with no precise enemy and no expressly stated final goal. Terrorism will never be eradicated completely; does this mean future presidents will assert extraordinary war powers indefinitely?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Washington DC provides a vivid illustration of what our future might look like. Visitors to Capitol Hill encounter police barricades, metal detectors, paramilitary officers carrying fully automatic rifles, police dogs, ID checks, and vehicle stops. The people are totally disarmed; only the police and criminals have guns. Surveillance cameras are everywhere, monitoring street activity, subway travel, parks, and federal buildings. There's not much evidence of an open society in Washington, DC, yet most folks do not complain-- anything goes if it's for government-provided safety and security.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After all, proponents argue, the government is doing all this to catch the bad guys. If you don’t have anything to hide, they ask, what are you so afraid of? The answer is that I’m afraid of losing the last vestiges of privacy that a free society should hold dear. I’m afraid of creating a society where the burden is on citizens to prove their innocence, rather than on government to prove wrongdoing. Most of all, I’m afraid of living in a society where a subservient populace surrenders its liberties to an all-powerful government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It may be true that average Americans do not feel intimidated by the encroachment of the police state. Americans remain tolerant of what they see as mere nuisances because they have been deluded into believing total government supervision is necessary and helpful, and because they still enjoy a high level of material comfort. That tolerance may wane, however, as our standard of living falls due to spiraling debt, endless deficit spending at home and abroad, a declining fiat dollar, inflation, higher interest rates, and failing entitlement programs. At that point attitudes toward omnipotent government may change, but the trend toward authoritarianism will be difficult to reverse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those who believe a police state can't happen here are poor students of history. Every government, democratic or not, is capable of tyranny. We must understand this if we hope to remain a free people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;END&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--------------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Evil triumphs when good men do nothing!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Resistance To Tyranny Is Obedience To GOD" —Thomas Jefferson&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5196052296126723727-6026723913475882889?l=johntimothyvian.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/feeds/6026723913475882889/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5196052296126723727&amp;postID=6026723913475882889' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/6026723913475882889'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/6026723913475882889'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/2011/01/it-cant-happen-here.html' title='It Can&apos;t Happen Here!'/><author><name>John T.

In the course of his business, he  stumbled upon some illegal activities carried out by the Florida Department of  Environmental Protection (DEP), including state employees dumping toxic waste in  Florida water reclamation areas.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;p&gt;On Friday, Hamilton County sheriff’s deputies and Florida Department of Law  Enforcement (FDLE) agents, dressed in tactical gear and armed with assault  rifles, served him with a search warrant.   Agents seized his computer, cell  phone, video camera, and other items.   However, Burton has not been charged  with any crime.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;He also reported that the DEP had seized a logger’s entire season harvest,  even though the logger had the proper permits, and was violating no laws.  A  judge later ruled that the logger in question had legally harvested the logs,  valued at over $300,000, but the DEP has refused to return the logs.  He  contends that public records regarding this case were intentionally  destroyed.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Burton recorded a telephone conversation with Ryan Tyson, the Chief of Staff  for State Senator Charles S. “Charlie” Dean, Sr.,  in which&lt;/p&gt; &lt;div id="attachment_327"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1787network.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/burton.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="Bob Burton" alt="Bob Burton as seen in one of his YouTube.com videos that was not deleted." src="http://1787network.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/burton-300x193.jpg" width="300" height="193" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Bob Burton as seen in one of his YouTube.com videos  that was not deleted. &lt;/div&gt; &lt;p&gt;Tyson may have made incriminating statements regarding DEP activities.     Sen. Dean is the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Environmental Preservation  and Conservation.   Burton published his conversation with Tyson, along with  other evidence of corruption, on YouTube.com.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;As of Friday evening, those videos have been deleted by YouTube.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;All of that apparently led to deputies and FDLE agents in tactical gear with  assault rifles paying him a terrifying visit.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;On Friday, January 14 around 7:30 am, Burton got a knock on his door.   Standing there was a Hamilton County sheriff’s deputy and several heavily armed  FDLE agents.  They presented a warrant.  Not an arrest warrant, but a warrant to  seize Burton’s computer, video camera, cell phone, and documents.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;No one was arrested — they just wanted the documents and recordings Burton  had made of state officials engaged in what appears to be illegal  activities.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Burton’s wife, who was in the shower at the time, was forced out of the  bathroom.  They brought in a female agent to observe her as she dressed.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The Burtons were deeply shaken by the raid.  “I’m rattled right now.  They’ve  confiscated everything,” said Burton.  “When they come to your door with assault  rifles…if I had a phone or remote control in my hand at the time, there’s no  telling what would’ve happened.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;In Florida, both parties must be aware that a phone conversation is being  recorded in order to comply with the law.  However, when a citizen calls the  Senator’s office, there is a recorded message at the beginning of the call that  says, “This call may be monitored or recorded.”  Therefore, both parties would  presumably be aware that the call was being recorded, complying with state  law.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Florida takes pride in the “Government-in-the-Sunshine” law, which assures  that dealings between the public and state government officials are open to the  public, and can be copied and republished by the public at large.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“They way [the DEP Inspector General's office] has been destroying public  records, we had to do something to expose what they were doing to us and to  everyone in the State of Florida,” said Burton.  Burton said he has been in  contact with representatives for Gov. Rick Scott’s office.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Burton says he has official documents, recordings, and other evidence proving  his claims.   He says that the state has attempted to intimidate and harass him  on several occasions in the past, but this is the most aggressive act toward him  and his family to date.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Burton’s crusade against the Florida Department of Environmental Protection  began years ago.  His investigation has led him to believe that this corruption  is part of a wider, perhaps more sinister plan.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;According to Burton, many of the state’s illegal activities may be an effort  to fulfill a United Nations plan known as Agenda 21.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The UN Division for Sustainable Development describes Agenda 21 as a  “comprehensive plan of action to be taken globally, nationally and locally by  organizations of the United Nations System, Governments, and Major Groups in  every area in which human impacts (sic) on the environment.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Under Agenda 21, the UN is promoting the forceful transfer of ownership of  forests and natural resources away from governments and individuals to entities  which they refer to as Private-Public Partnerships (PPP).  These PPPs most  commonly consist of partnerships between global corporations, universities,  private foundations, and environmental groups, such as the Sierra Club.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;At this time, there do not appear to be any charges against Burton, but the  state has issued him a trespass warning on state-owned land.   Because of this  recent raid, Burton is deeply concerned for his family’s safety.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;All attempts to contact Sen. Dean for comment were unsuccessful.   Hamilton  County Sheriff J. Harrell Reid did not return our call for comment.  Keith  Kameg, public information officer for the FDLE, said that he had no information  regarding the warrant, and that they were likely there only to assist with  serving the warrant at the request of the Hamilton County Sheriff’s office.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;We will have more on this story as it develops.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;UPDATE (01-15-2011 15:47)&lt;/strong&gt; 1787 Network has obtained a copy  of the search warrant, and the complaintant on the warrant is Special Agent Eric  Daniel of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;UPDATE (01-15-2011 18:30)&lt;/strong&gt; Keith Kameg of the FDLE has now  confirmed that this is an FDLE-led investigation.  Kameg said he was unable to  give any additional information because the warrant executed at the Burton home  is part of an ongoing investigation.  Kameg would not confirm if any charges  were pending against Burton, nor would he comment on the nature of the  investigation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5196052296126723727-5823996577087871202?l=johntimothyvian.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.federaljack.com/?p=19235' title='Whistleblower’s home raided by armed FDLE agents'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/feeds/5823996577087871202/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5196052296126723727&amp;postID=5823996577087871202' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/5823996577087871202'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/5823996577087871202'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/2011/01/whistleblowers-home-raided-by-armed.html' title='Whistleblower’s home raided by armed FDLE agents'/><author><name>John T.

All great economic empires eventually  become fat and lazy and squander the great wealth that their forefathers have  left them, but the pace at which America is accomplishing this is absolutely  amazing.  It was America that was at the forefront of the industrial  revolution.  It was America that showed the world how to mass produce everything  from automobiles to televisions to airplanes.  It was the great American  manufacturing base that crushed Germany and Japan in World War II.  But now we  are witnessing the deindustrialization of America.  Tens of thousands of  factories have left the United States in the past decade alone.  Millions upon  millions of manufacturing jobs have been lost in the same time period.  The  United States has become a nation that consumes everything in sight and yet  produces increasingly little.  Do you know what our biggest export is today?   Waste paper.  Yes, trash is the number one thing that we ship out to the rest of  the world as we voraciously blow our money on whatever the rest of the world  wants to sell to us.  The United States has become bloated and spoiled and our  economy is now  just a shadow of what it once was.  Once upon a time America  could literally outproduce the rest of the world combined.  Today that is no  longer true, but Americans sure do consume more than anyone else in the world.   If the deindustrialization of America continues at this current pace, what  possible kind of a future are we going to be leaving to our children?&lt;/div&gt; &lt;p&gt;Any great nation throughout history has been great at making things.  So if  the United States continues to allow its manufacturing base to erode at a  staggering pace how in the world can the U.S. continue to consider itself to be  a great nation?  We have created the biggest debt bubble in the history of the  world in an effort to maintain a very high standard of living, but the current  state of affairs is not anywhere close to sustainable.  Every single month  America does into more debt and every single month America gets poorer.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;So what happens when the debt bubble pops?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The deindustrialization of the United States should be a top concern for  every man, woman and child in the country.  But sadly, most Americans do not  have any idea what is going on around them.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;For people like that, take this article and print it out and hand it to  them.  Perhaps what they will read below will shock them badly enough to awaken  them from their slumber.    &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The following are 19 facts about the deindustrialization of America that will  blow your mind….&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#1&lt;/strong&gt; The United States has lost approximately &lt;a href="http://www.prospect.org/cs/articles?article=the_plight_of_american_manufacturing"&gt;42,400  factories&lt;/a&gt; since 2001. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#2&lt;/strong&gt; Dell Inc., one of America’s largest manufacturers of  computers, has announced plans to dramatically expand its operations in China  with an investment &lt;a href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703440604575495622574592814.html"&gt;of  over $100 billion&lt;/a&gt;over the next decade.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#3&lt;/strong&gt; Dell has announced that it will be closing its last large  U.S. manufacturing facility in Winston-Salem, North Carolina in November.   Approximately &lt;a href="http://www.statesman.com/business/technology/dell-plans-second-large-manufacturing-center-in-china-920959.html"&gt;900  jobs&lt;/a&gt; will be lost.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#4&lt;/strong&gt; In 2008, 1.2 billion cellphones were sold worldwide.  So  how many of them were manufactured inside the United States?  &lt;a href="http://www.prospect.org/cs/articles?article=the_plight_of_american_manufacturing"&gt;Zero&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#5&lt;/strong&gt; According to a new study conducted by the Economic Policy  Institute, if the U.S. trade deficit with China continues to increase at its  current rate, the U.S. economy &lt;a href="http://www.epi.org/page/-/pdf/ib283.pdf"&gt;will lose over half a million  jobs&lt;/a&gt; this year alone.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#6&lt;/strong&gt; As of the end of July, the U.S. trade deficit with China  had risen 18 percent compared to the same time period a year ago.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#7&lt;/strong&gt; The United States has lost a total of about &lt;a href="http://www.prospect.org/cs/articles?article=the_plight_of_american_manufacturing"&gt;5.5  million manufacturing jobs&lt;/a&gt; since October 2000.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#8&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;a href="http://taxprof.typepad.com/files/128tn1102.pdf"&gt;According to Tax  Notes,&lt;/a&gt; between 1999 and 2008 employment at the foreign affiliates of U.S.  parent companies increased an astounding 30 percent to 10.1 million. During that  exact same time period, U.S. employment at American multinational  corporations declined 8 percent to 21.1 million.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#9&lt;/strong&gt; In 1959, manufacturing represented &lt;a href="http://www.prospect.org/cs/articles?article=the_plight_of_american_manufacturing"&gt;28  percent&lt;/a&gt; of U.S. economic output.  In 2008, it represented 11.5 percent.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#10&lt;/strong&gt; Ford Motor Company recently announced &lt;a href="http://www.economyincrisis.org/content/american-factories-continue-shutter"&gt;the  closure of a factory that produces the Ford Ranger&lt;/a&gt; in St. Paul, Minnesota.  Approximately 750 good paying middle class jobs are going to be lost because  making Ford Rangers in Minnesota does not fit in with Ford’s new “global”  manufacturing strategy.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#11&lt;/strong&gt; As of the end of 2009, &lt;a href="http://www.prospect.org/cs/articles?article=the_plight_of_american_manufacturing"&gt;less  than 12 million Americans&lt;/a&gt; worked in manufacturing.  The last time less than  12 million Americans were employed in manufacturing was in 1941.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#12&lt;/strong&gt; In the United States today, consumption accounts for 70  percent of GDP. Of this 70 percent, &lt;a href="http://www.economyincrisis.org/content/american-illusion-wealth" target="_blank"&gt;over half is spent on services&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#13&lt;/strong&gt; The United States has lost &lt;a href="http://www.prospect.org/cs/articles?article=the_plight_of_american_manufacturing"&gt;a  whopping 32 percent&lt;/a&gt; of its manufacturing jobs since the year 2000.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#14 &lt;/strong&gt;In 2001, the United States ranked fourth in the world in  per capita broadband Internet use.  Today &lt;a href="http://www2.macleans.ca/2010/09/14/third-world-america/2/"&gt;it ranks  15th&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#15&lt;/strong&gt; Manufacturing employment in the U.S. computer industry  is actually lower in 2010 &lt;a href="http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/10_28/b4186048358596.htm"&gt;than  it was in 1975&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#16&lt;/strong&gt; Printed circuit boards are used in tens of thousands of  different products.  Asia now produces &lt;a href="http://www.prospect.org/cs/articles?article=the_plight_of_american_manufacturing"&gt;84  percent&lt;/a&gt; of them worldwide.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#17&lt;/strong&gt; The United States spends &lt;a href="http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/10-reasons-why-conservatives-should-be-against-unfair-trade-with-china-and-10-reasons-why-liberals-should-be-against-unfair-trade-with-china"&gt;approximately $3.90&lt;/a&gt; on  Chinese goods for every $1 that the Chinese spend on goods from the United  States.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#18&lt;/strong&gt; One prominent economist is projecting that the Chinese  economy &lt;a href="http://www.marketwatch.com/story/goldman-conspiracy-helps-china-beat-us-2010-09-14?reflink=MW_news_stmp" target="_blank"&gt;will be three times larger&lt;/a&gt;than the U.S. economy by the year  2040.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;#19&lt;/strong&gt; The U.S. Census Bureau says that 43.6 million Americans  are now living in poverty and according to them that is the highest number of  poor Americans &lt;a href="http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/20-signs-that-the-economic-collapse-has-already-begun-for-one-out-of-every-seven-americans" target="_blank"&gt;in the 51 years that records have been kept&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;So how many tens of thousands more factories do we need to lose before we do  something about it?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;How many millions more Americans are going to become unemployed before we all  admit that we have a very, very serious problem on our hands?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;How many more trillions of dollars are going to leave the country before we  realize that we are losing wealth at a pace that is killing our economy?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;How many once great manufacturing cities are going to become rotting war  zones like Detroit before we understand that we are committing national economic  suicide?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The deindustrialization of America is a national crisis.  It needs to be  treated like one.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;If you disagree with this article, I have a direct challenge for you.  If  anyone can explain how a deindustrialized America has any kind of viable  economic future, please do so below in the comments section.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;America is in deep, deep trouble folks.  It is time to wake up.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5196052296126723727-3086666637183531158?l=johntimothyvian.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.federaljack.com/?p=19237' title='19 Facts About The Deindustrialization Of America That Will Blow Your Mind'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/feeds/3086666637183531158/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5196052296126723727&amp;postID=3086666637183531158' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/3086666637183531158'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/3086666637183531158'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/2011/01/19-facts-about-deindustrialization-of.html' title='19 Facts About The Deindustrialization Of America That Will Blow Your Mind'/><author><name>John T.

There are no brain scans, x-rays, genetic or blood tests that can prove they are mentally ill, yet these children are prescribed dangerous and life-threatening psychiatric drugs. Child drugging is a $4.8 billion-a-year industry.&lt;br /&gt;1) THERE ARE NO TESTS IN EXISTENCE THAT CAN PROVE MENTAL “DISORDERS” ARE MEDICAL CONDITIONS. PSYCHIATRIC DIAGNOSIS IS BASED SOLELY ON OPINION.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The psychiatric/pharmaceutical industry spends billions of dollars a year in order to convince the public, legislators and the press that psychiatric disorders such as Bi-Polar Disorder, Depression, Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD/ADHD), Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, etc., are medical diseases on par with verifiable medical conditions such as cancer, diabetes and heart disease. This is simply a way to maintain their hold on a $84 billion dollar-a-year psychiatric drug industry that is based on marketing and not science. Unlike real medical disease, there are no scientific tests to verify the medical existence of any psychiatric disorder. Despite decades of trying to prove mental disorders are biological brain conditions, due to chemical imbalances or genetic factors, psychiatry has failed to prove even one of their hundreds of so-called mental disorders is due to a faulty or “chemically imbalanced” brain. To counter this obvious flaw in their push to medicalize behaviors, the psychiatric industry will claim that there are certain medical conditions that do not have a verifiable test so this is why there isn’t one for “mental illness.” This is frankly a lame argument; Whereas there may be rare medical conditions that do not have a verifiable medical test, &lt;a href="http://www.cchrint.org/psychiatric-disorders/psychiatrists-on-lack-of-any-medical-or-scientific-tests/"&gt;there are virtually no psychiatric disorders that can be verified medically as a physical abnormality/disease.&lt;/a&gt; Not one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In fact the “brain scans” that have been pawned off as evidence that schizophrenia or depression are brain diseases, are simply bogus. Most have not been done on drug naive patients, meaning someone who has not been on psychiatric drugs such as antipsychotic drugs, documented to cause &lt;a href="http://www.cchrint.org/2010/07/07/exclusive-anti-psychotics-likely-to-cause-brain-damage-new-study-says/"&gt;brain atrophy (shrinkage). &lt;/a&gt;Other brain scans have shown the brains of smaller children to show smaller brains in comparison to larger/older children and then claimed children with ADHD have smaller brains. None have been conclusively proven to verify mental disorders as abnormalities of the brain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Difference Between a Medical&lt;br /&gt;Disease and a Psychiatric Disorder&lt;br /&gt;If there were such verifiable brain scans, or in fact any medical/scientific test that could show a physical/medical abnormality for any psychiatric disorder, the public would be getting such tests prior to being administered psychiatric drugs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is fact: There are no genetic tests, no brain scans, blood tests, chemical imbalance tests or X-rays that can scientifically/medically prove that any psychiatric disorder is a medical condition. Period. Whereas real diseases are discovered in labs, psychiatric disorders are invented by committee and voted into existence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. YES, PEOPLE CAN GET DEPRESSED, SAD, ANXIOUS AND EVEN ACT PSYCHOTIC. THAT DOESN’T MAKE THEM MENTALLY “DISEASED”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No one is saying that people don’t get depressed, sad, troubled, anxious, nervous or even sometimes act psychotic. The question then is simple—is this due to some mental “disease” that can be verified as one would verify cancer or a real medical condition? And the answer is No. For example, can soldiers returning from war experience extreme and often debilitating stress? Yes. It is something wrong with their brain? No. It’s the horrors of war. Can children become distracted and not pay attention? Since time immemorial, the answer is yes. But psychiatry has pathologized childhood behaviors into a “mental illness.” The same is true of mothers. Can a new mother become distraught after a joyous occasion such as the birth of a child? Yes. Is it a brain abnormality or mental disease? No. And is the most humane solution to put these people on drugs &lt;a href="http://www.cchrint.org/pdfs/The_Side_Effects_of_Common_Psychiatric_Drugs.pdf"&gt;documented by international regulatory agencies &lt;/a&gt;to cause mania, psychosis, worsening depression, heart attack, stroke, sudden death? Or for new or nursing mothers to risk birth defects or damage to their infants from being prescribed such powerful drugs?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is also true of people diagnosed “schizophrenic.” There is no medical test to verify someone has a brain abnormality or medical condition of schizophrenia. And while no one claims people can’t become psychotic, the fact remains there is no biological evidence to support schizophrenia as a brain disease or chemical abnormality. And consider this, if people do become psychotic, or irrational, is it in fact caused by some &lt;a href="http://www.alternativementalhealth.com/articles/diamond.htm"&gt;underlying medical (not psychiatric) problem&lt;/a&gt;? And why did &lt;a href="http://psychrights.org/research/Digest/NLPs/OutcomeFactors.pdf"&gt;a 15-year multiple follow up study find that&lt;/a&gt; there was a 40% recovery rate for those diagnosed schizophrenic who did not take antipsychotics, versus a 5% rate for those who did? What happened to their supposed “brain disease?” Did it simply vanish? Moreover, if they could recover from such a mental state, do they deserve the “stigma” of “schizophrenia” still being part of their permanent medical record? For life? Think about it. Imagine you were extremely overweight—obese. You lose all the weight so you are no longer obese. Yet your medical records continue to say that you are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And if schizophrenia is in fact a “disease” despite the fact there is no medical or biological evidence (note we did not say speculation, or theories, but evidence) then why is it that psychiatrist Loren Mosher, the former Chief of Schizophrenia Research for the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) openly state that there is no biological condition of schizophrenia as a disease or brain malfunction? And why didn’t the mental health industry take advantage of his 2-year-outcome studies proving that those diagnosed schizophrenic could recover without the use of drugs? Is it because this proved that recovery was possible and thereby disproved the theory that something was wrong with their brain? Or was it the fact that they recovered without the use of drugs, thereby threatening a multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical industry? Maybe this explains why Mosher was &lt;a href="http://www.moshersoteria.com/"&gt;fired from his position at NIMH.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The Side Effects of&lt;br /&gt;Common Psychiatric Drugs&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. THE CAMPAIGN TO “STOP THE STIGMA OF MENTAL ILLNESS” IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY… BIG PHARMA&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With a seemingly altruistic agenda, the fact is the campaign to end the “stigma” of mental illness is one driven and funded by those who benefit from more and more people being labeled mentally ill—pharma, psychiatry and pharmaceutical front groups such as &lt;a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/22/health/22nami.html?_r=2&amp;amp;src=twr"&gt;NAMI&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.ahrp.org/cms/content/view/178/100/"&gt;CHADD&lt;/a&gt; to name but a few. For example, take NAMI’s campaign to stop the “stigma” and “end discrimination” against the mentally ill—the “Founding Sponsors” were Abbott Labs, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Eli Lilly, Janssen, Pfizer, Novartis, SmithKline Beecham and Wyeth-Ayerst Labs. (For an in-depth look at what else Pharma funds and how this funding not only helps set mental health policies but campaigns such as this, read Pharmaceutical Industry Agenda Setting in Mental Health Policies at the bottom of this post)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fact is that the “stigmatization ” is coming from those that benefit from people being labeled/stigmatized with mental disorders that have no medical/biological evidence. Case in point, if you are rebellious, you are “stigmatized” with the label &lt;a href="http://nestmann.sovereignsociety.com/2010/09/16/are-independent-thinkers-mentally-ill/"&gt;“oppositional defiant disorder.”&lt;/a&gt; If your kid acts like a kid he is “stigmatized” with the label &lt;a href="http://network.nationalpost.com/NP/blogs/fullcomment/archive/2010/04/27/john-baglow-message-to-disease-industry-that-s-why-they-call-it-acting-like-a-child.aspx"&gt;“ADHD.”&lt;/a&gt; If you are sad, unhappy (even temporarily) you are “stigmatized” with the label &lt;a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/15/opinion/15frances.html?_r=2"&gt;“depressive” or “bi-polar disorder.”&lt;/a&gt; If you are shy you are “stigmatized” with the label “&lt;a href="http://motherjones.com/politics/2002/07/disorders-made-order"&gt;social anxiety disorder&lt;/a&gt;.” Moreover, you or your child are now &lt;a href="http://www.examiner.com/mental-health-in-portland/psychiatric-overdiagnosis-means-normal-could-become-obsolete"&gt;stigmatized for life&lt;/a&gt; as this label, which is based solely on opinion, is now part of your medical record, despite the fact there is no medical evidence to prove you are “mentally ill”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. PSYCHIATRIC “LABELS” ARE THE PROBLEM&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Increasing numbers of people realize that just because a child fidgets, or loses pencils or toys—criteria for an “ADHD” diagnoses, this doesn’t mean a child is mentally ill. In fact many now claim that children diagnosed “ADHD” are really suffering from led toxicity, or allergies, or poor diet, or lack of reading skills, and not a mental “illness.” The problem is that they continue to use the psychiatric label, ADHD, which stigmatizes a child as “mentally ill.” If in fact a child suffers from led toxicity, then why not call it led toxicity? If he hasn’t been taught to read, why don’t we just say he hasn’t been taught to read? The same is true of all psychiatric diagnoses—every single psychiatric label stigmatizes the person being labeled. Psychiatric diagnoses are simply lists of behaviors that psychiatrists have compiled into little lists, given a name, added “disorder” on the end— then voted them into their billing bible, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) as “legitimate.” This is big, big business, but it isn’t even close to legitimate diagnoses. Not in any medical or scientific context. A profit making context? Sure. Because coming up with new lists of behaviors and new “disorders” is the bedrock of the multi-billion dollar psychiatric/pharmaceutical industry. Its how they get paid. Remember, no psychiatric label, no billing insurance. No psychiatric label, no drug prescribed. So until we stop using these psychiatric labels, which mean nothing other than what some psychiatrists decided was a mental “illness, ” we will never stop the “stigma.” Because the psychiatric labels are backed by corporate interests—not medicine, and not science.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. PSYCHIATRIC DRUGS ARE BIG BUSINESS—AND THE PSYCHIATRIC/PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY IS MAKING A KILLING—$84 BILLION PER YEAR.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The primary reason people take psychiatric drugs is because they’ve been taught to believe they have a medical condition called a psychiatric disorder, which then justifies taking drugs to treat it. This is a brilliant marketing campaign, but it is not science. Any drug changes behavior or mood, whether cocaine, alcohol, marijuana or heroin. This does not mean someone who acts or feels differently on cocaine does so because they had a cocaine imbalance which the cocaine then corrected. It means that drugs changes mood, emotion and behavior. But while the illicit use of drugs is universally frowned upon, and considered a bad way for people to deal with their problems, psychiatric drugs are made out to be “good” drugs, despite the fact many are more addictive than cocaine or heroin, and have side effects that rival such hardcore street drugs as LSD, heroin and crack cocaine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. WHERE TO GET THE FACTS ABOUT PSYCHIATRIC DRUGS RISKS AND SIDE EFFECTS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because the public has been so mislead by the psychiatric/pharmaceutical industry on the dangers of psychiatric drugs, &lt;a href="http://www.cchrint.org/psychdrugdangers/"&gt;CCHR has created a one-of-a-kind, easy to search psychiatric drugs side effects database&lt;/a&gt;, containing all international studies and drug regulatory warnings that have been issued on both classes of drugs (antidepressants, antipsychotics, anti-anxiety drugs, stimulants, etc) and brand names such as Prozac, Zoloft, Paxil, Risperdal, Seroquel, Ritalin etc. These are provided by CCHR as a free public service to help people make educated decisions based on facts, not marketing campaigns&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. WHY SAFE, EFFECTIVE TREATMENTS TO MENTAL DIFFICULTIES ARE KEPT BURIED&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The larger problem is that the biological drug model (based on the bogus mental disorders are a disease marketing campaign) prevents governments from funding &lt;a href="http://www.cchrint.org/alternatives/"&gt;real medical solutions&lt;/a&gt; for people experiencing difficulty. And there are workable, non-harmful medical treatments that do not receive government funding because the psychiatric/pharmaceutical industry spends billions of dollars on advertising and lobbying efforts, including hundreds of their pharma funded “patient’s rights” groups to counter any medical modality that does not support their biological drug model of mental disorders as a disease. Why? Billions of dollars in revenue for the psycho/pharma industry would be lost. This is an industry that time and again, has been proven to put profit above patients lives.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5196052296126723727-6469168015041329661?l=johntimothyvian.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.cchrint.org/psychiatric-disorders/' title='Stop Labeling The Children!'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/feeds/6469168015041329661/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5196052296126723727&amp;postID=6469168015041329661' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/6469168015041329661'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/6469168015041329661'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/2011/01/stop-labeling-children.html' title='Stop Labeling The Children!'/><author><name>John T.

They are hoping the U.S. Supreme Court will somehow  reverse its outrageous decisions on abortion, pornography, sodomy, and  euthanasia. I do not envision the Supreme Court as an instrument of  moral reform.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Some state legislatures are testing legal waters by passing laws to  regulate abortion, and abortion clinics. Why are the battle lines drawn  so far back? Is immorality all we can legislate? Why is it unthinkable  to deny Planned Parenthood our tax money? Most conservatives are  favorable to fighting same-sex marriage, but lack the moral courage to  outlaw sodomy, adultery, and fornication as did our forefathers. Log  Cabin Republicans have established a cozy homestead within the  Republican Party.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; America’s love affair with abortion is on the wane, but for wrong  reasons. Public opinion prefers “women’s rights to baby’s rights.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Most pro-life organizations attempt to win favor with aborting mothers  in an awkward backhanded attempt to save children. They appeal to the  aborting mother’s selfish motives as they try to convince her that  birthing her child is in her best self interest. “Women deserve better  than abortion!” they say. Pro-lifers appear “non-judgmental” or  indifferent of the choice the aborting mother makes. They portray the  aborting mother as a “victim” when baby is the real victim. “Planned  Parenthood lied to me; they didn’t tell me I was killing a baby!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Those who frequent the death camps should see through these sickening  lies. Most aborting mothers refuse literature; they stop their ears from  hearing, and avert their eyes from viewing pictures of aborted  children. Few of them change their mind upon receiving information on  abortion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; What shall we say to 33 years of state sanctioned baby-murder when  abortion finally becomes illegal? Who is capable of apologizing to 50  million slain? How shall we compensate their loss and the loss to  others?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; In a wrongful death suit May 11, 2001 the Arkansas Supreme Court ruled  that a 12 week pre-born child is a person. Why does that biological  reality not extend itself to other states and other times?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Abortion will end at last when there are but few children to abort.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; The absence of children is deeply noticed and felt. Most American  couples have two children or less. Childless couples adopt overseas  children. The SS (Social Services) steal children under color of law.  They need children in their system to justify budgets and existence.  Schools compete for students. Buses travel to and fro, half empty,  aborted ghosts peer out windows, yet the NEA is pro-choice!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Teen pregnancy is declining, not for moral reasons; birth control and  sodomy contribute to America’s birth dearth. The sodomite agenda is  taught to school aged children of which many are embracing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Euthanasia, the new frontier, faces the same legal challenges as  abortion. Will parental consent, 24 hour waiting periods, parental  notification, and informed consent be Right to Life’s future agenda?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Is abortion and suicide right for you? Ask your doctor!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; We live in dark times; “even darkness which may be felt” Ex. 10:21. The  Supreme Court will inevitably fashion itself to public opinion.

And I am sorry to say that it wasn’t        until “that sorrowful day in September” that I decided        to take a serious look at the history of our country,        and it was that which has made all the difference, that        which no doubt changed my life.  As a result, I began to        understand the sacrosanct privilege of being a citizen        of a democratic republic, what it means to suffer “the        swift retaliation” of those incapable of understanding        the irrefragable duty to question one’s country, what        has no doubt become a determined need to challenge the        insanity of a nation having apparently gone mad in an        outrageously absurd rush to war.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;      &lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;       &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;Then, after having spent        forty years as a psychologist teaching at the college        level, my sentiments have not changed; we, as teachers,        have done a terrible thing.  We have chosen to mislead        our students.  We have led them to believe things that        are simply not true.  Rather than educating them, arming        them with the knowledge necessary to understand “the        realities of the life,” we have inadvisably placed an        inordinate emphasis upon preparing youth for the        workplace, essentially training them to become        robot-like cogs in the machinery of mankind.  Rather        than vesting them with the power to think for        themselves, the power to reason in a critical manner,        the sagacity to understand the complex nature of the        moral dilemmas set before us, we have, through the power        of propaganda, chosen to domesticate our youth, deciding        that it is preferable that they become flag-waving        patriots, loyalists, apologists chauvinistically        pledging their allegiance to the Fatherland. This,        paired with a combat-contingent reinstatement of the        military draft (H.R. 4752: Universal National Service        Act of 2006) coupled with President Bush’s No Child Left        Behind Act (Section 9528) that has apparently given        military recruiters (who quite often do not tell our        kids the truth) the nearly unprecedented right to roam        the halls of our public schools demanding the name,        address, and telephone number of each and every student        in the country….…. and we may well be looking at a        lead-up to that which occurred in the 1930’s as Adolph        Hitler “brown-shirted” the youth of Germany assuring        there would be a ready supply of soldiers to serve in        combat.   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;      &lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;       &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;Decidedly, such is no way        to raise children unless we, as a people, have decided        that we do not want our children to possess the        soundness of mind, the skills, necessary to carry out        the astonishingly difficult task of maintaining the        cumbersome complexities of a democratic republic. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;      &lt;div class="MsoBodyText" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;       &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"&gt;Consequently, as a        counterbalance to the many myths (fictions, fantasies,        and fabrications) taught in our public schools, I am        proposing that youth be taught to respect the wonderful        elegance of peace, love, and justice, that our children        understand the terrible dreadfulness of war, hate, and        injustice, that they appreciate the gravity, the        paramount import, of facing the reality of the world in        which they live, that they develop the character, even        the wisdom, to realize that:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;      &lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;       &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;      &lt;ol style="margin-top: 0in;" type="1"&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;       &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;Every human being is        sacred, that regardless of one’s sex, race, status,        economic condition, creed, color, nationality, religion,        or sexual orientation, nothing is of greater value than        that of protecting the right for everyone to be treated        with respect. &lt;/span&gt;       &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;       &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;Each and every human being        is first, and foremost, a valued member of the human        family, and then, and only then, a citizen of any        particular nation, that reversing the order of these        will, without exception, distort one’s relationship with        his fellowman leading to an increased likelihood of        mutual misunderstanding, conflict, and, in the long run,        war. &lt;/span&gt;       &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;       &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;Peace is a far better thing        than war, that each of us, as human beings, has a moral        responsibility to use our energy and talents to move the        world toward peace, love, and justice, and thus away        from that of war, hate, and injustice. &lt;/span&gt;       &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;       &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;From the very beginning our        country has been enmeshed in violence.  First, there was        the decision to go to war with the British Empire.  Then        a near-genocidal attempt to destroy the American Indian,        the original inhabitants of our country, followed by a        centuries-long exploitation of the Black race.  Along        with this, our country has a time-honored tradition of        conflict with a multitude of others: threatening to        destroy our adversaries (nations unwilling to align        themselves with that of our interests) through the use        of an arsenal of deadly (many of them nuclear) weapons;        willingly participating in the overthrow of numerous        popularly elected governments unwilling to abide by our        rules; demanding that other countries allow us the right        to exploit their natural resources in order to maintain        our own standard of living; has been, and perhaps still        is, involved in the trafficking of drugs around the        world; assassinates foreign leaders, aids terrorists,        and supports “death squads;” has committed a multitude        of crimes against humanity; has allowed the CIA, an        organization much like that of the Mafia, to terrorize        the world; kidnaps suspects and tortures prisoners;        imprisons more of its own people than any other country        in the world; is the only nation in the West that kills        it’s own people through the use of the death penalty; is        an international pariah, a true maverick, refusing to        work with the rest of the world in order to resolve        problems confronting humanity; has a long and varied        history of aligning itself with a rather vicious        assortment of dictators, tyrants, and despots willing to        do our bidding at the expense of their own people; and,        as such, is increasingly beginning to resemble the        fascist movements of Adolph Hitler in his nascent 1930’s        attempt to take over the world. &lt;/span&gt;       &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;

       as an economic arrangement, is in no way preferable to        that of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;       socialism, an economic system that cherishes a        relatively high degree of equality amongst its citizens        (the right for everyone to share in and to have access        to “the basics of life”), while simultaneously        encouraging individuals to overcome the temptation to be        indolent (lazy and/or unproductive) by mandating that        each has a moral responsibility to share with others, as        indicated by Karl Marx’s aphorism, “From &lt;/span&gt;

an unrestrained need to generate more and        more wealth (that of an increasingly large gross        national product), individual and corporate assets        protected by a military arsenal ready and willing to        destroy any nation audacious enough  to interfere.       &lt;/span&gt;

      &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;       &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;It is important that one        have humility, an inner power manifested by those who        understand that they are no better than anyone else, a        rather calm and unpretentious realization that one’s        accomplishments are of no special significance, no doubt        the only known cure for those shackled by the chains of        conceit so terribly central to that of arrogance.        &lt;/span&gt;

      &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;       &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;It is important that one        become self-reliant, that one develop the skills        necessary for self-governance, that one develop the        capacity to think things out for one’s self accompanied        by a firm resolution that one must never allow one’s        self to become a servile slave of the status quo, that        one must resist the temptation to go along with the        crowd, to become “a good ole boy,” an organizational        man, or that of a team player. &lt;/span&gt;

     &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;      &lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in; text-indent: -0.25in; text-align: justify;"&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;       &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;17.&lt;span style="font-style: normal;

 &lt;/span&gt;      &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;      &lt;ol style="margin-top: 0in;" start="18" type="1"&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;       &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;It is important that one        develop an empathic concern for others, the willingness        to place one’s self into “the shoes” of another person,        the capacity to view the world from the perspective of        folks unlike one’s self, even those of a foreign nation,        a resolve to overcome the narrow-minded confines of        one’s own cultural conditioning demanding that we        glorify the deeds of our own nation, while        simultaneously damning those of our enemy, a blind        presumption that we, as a nation, are always right        whereas our enemy is, without question, always wrong, a        programming that has taught us to live our lives        according to the Lex Talionis (red in tooth and claw)        Law of Retribution, that there is nothing wrong with        that of hating one’s enemy, that during a time of war we        should be proud of a willingness to kill the enemy, that        any effort to place ourselves in the shoes of an enemy        (to want to understand, and therefore forgive, him as a        human being who is in no way different from that of        ourselves) has become equated with that of having become        an apostate, a turncoat, a traitor, a disloyal American        willing to collaborate with the enemy, an arrogance so        profoundly ignorant that we, as citizens, seem to be        left with little choice but to follow the Machiavellian        edict to simply “do away with” those we have been taught        to hate. &lt;/span&gt;       &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;       &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;It is important that we        develop an appreciation for the fact of death, the fact        that each and everyone of us will one day die, an        existential reminder that if we are to be good stewards        of our lives, we must live each day as if it was our        last day on Earth, that, because we have only a limited        amount of time to get done “what must be done,” we must        take seriously the imperative that we live a good and        decent life, for without such an inclination, we will        certainly miss the mark, miss the existential        responsibility to make the most of our lives. &lt;/span&gt;              &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;       &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;Finally, it is necessary        that we comprehend our responsibility in regards to the        future, in regards to those who will populate the planet        once we die, the mandate that we respect, that we have a        true reverence for, life, that we honor and respect the        needs of those who will follow in our footsteps, that we        be willing to defend the Earth from the awful onslaught        of progress, that we, as a people, be willing to live        with less, that we put an end to the practice of        plundering and pillaging our planet, that we understand        that anything less than this may well lead to the        decimation, perhaps even the annihilation of, the human        race.&lt;/span&gt;      &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;      &lt;div class="MsoBodyText" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;       &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"&gt;Clearly then, a        partisan approach to anything results in children having        little choice but to believe what they have been told,        what has more or less been collectively “crammed down        their throats,” effectively depriving them of an        opportunity to know “the facts,” the facts, of course,        being the essential ingredients, no doubt the bedrock,        of truth.  Even though Christians (primarily those of        the religious right/the fundamentalists) have done a        great deal to muddy the “waters of truth,” the prophet        Jesus (in John 8:32) promised that “the truth will set        us free,” that an awareness of the facts, an informed        understanding of the way things are, a thorough “sifting        of the chaff from the wheat,” will provide a solid        foundation from which to launch a search for truth, a        place from which to begin, a progressive opportunity to        figure out what should be discarded, what ought to be        retained, and what needs to be added in order that youth        might be educated in an objective and honest manner.   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;      &lt;div class="MsoBodyText" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;       &lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;       &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"&gt;Rather than        allowing ourselves to be filled with fear, the fear of        loosing our jobs, afraid that someone might be a bit        upset by what we say or do; let’s reverse course.  Why        not strive to “upset a few apple carts,” strive to teach        the things that nobody wants to hear, demonstrate the        courage of our convictions, risk the consequences of        telling students “the truth.”  Otherwise, if we choose        not to do such a thing, we will be forced to face the        fact that we have become “partners in crime,” willing        participants in having chosen to lead our sons and        daughters down the “yellow brick road” of arrogance,        which leads to inhumanity, war, and then to death.         Thus, I believe that we must demand that we teach our        students “the truth,” demand that we teach each and        every side of each and every issue, enabling students to        transcend, to move beyond, the bondage of personal and        collective bias, to move beyond a self-inclined        willingness to bask in the twilight of social and        cultural ignorance, demand that we do our best to set        humanity free from the shackles of self and society in        order that we, as a people, might one day thirst after        righteousness, that we might be more inclined to love        God, our neighbor, and perhaps even that of our enemy,        placing us on the firmest of ground, the freshly        prepared path of peace leading to the promise land of        life, liberty, and justice, not just for us, but for all        of mankind. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;             &lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;       &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"&gt;No doubt something        for all of us to consider since it is our very own        children, that of the next generation, who will one day        inherit the future, and thus govern our nation.         Accordingly, it is imperative that we ask who will be        most qualified, most able, to take the reigns of        leadership; statesmen eager to build a democracy        committed to peace, love, and justice, or another bunch        of thugs anxiously awaiting their turn to rule the world        with the “shock and awe” of their most recently        developed weapons of death? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5196052296126723727-857634274573444877?l=johntimothyvian.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article15691.htm' title='A Prescription for Peace'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/feeds/857634274573444877/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5196052296126723727&amp;postID=857634274573444877' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/857634274573444877'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/857634274573444877'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/2011/01/prescription-for-peace.html' title='A Prescription for Peace'/><author><name>John T.

The danger which every country has gone through already, at the cost of personal freedom.  It's the danger of forsaking God Almighty, the work that He accomplished by sending His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ to die for our sins.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;The gospel of God's Holy Word is what makes people free, vibrant and creative.  Yet we Americans are more interested in what is aired on the television set, drunkenness, fornicating, reading our signs, witchcraft and our own personal image, then we are about what God says in His Word.  It's not any wonder that America has fallen under tyranny, for we have forsaken God and His Holy Word.  If society as a whole would seek after God with all their hearts, souls and minds, we would be well equipped for fighting the fascist dictatorship of the rich and famous.  However, this isn't going to happen because people are enjoying sin more than they would freedom.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;All propaganda in America today revolves around freedom; yet, freedom has been forgotten in the nature of its true spirit.  When we are living in sin, we are not free at all, we are bound and enslaved to the sins of our choice.  Whether it be homosexuality, drunkenness,  Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, sedition's, heresies, Envying, murders, etc, etc, we become bonded to these sins, nor do we inherit the Kingdom of God.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;I stress very heavily that we the people of the United States of America, wake up and smell the coffee.  The lies we have been told today are unprecedented and massive.  There is an enemy who wants your soul in the torments of hell.  Lucifer, that old serpent the devil, wants you as his slave.  The chains that bind you are the sins you are fully enjoying.  If you do not heed this warning, the best your future holds for you is the wrath of God which was intended for the devil and his angels.  You can blame God all you want, but it has been your choice to live separately from Him and to walk contrary to what He says in His Word to walk.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;20&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;  Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;21&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;  She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, saying, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;22&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;  How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity?

They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.  Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed &lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;them&lt;/span&gt; all.&lt;br /&gt;Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back. Remember Lot's wife.  Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.  I tell you, in that night there shall be two &lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;men&lt;/span&gt; in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.

Except this time the destruction of the wicked will be by the fires of hell, not by water.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Many people think that the ones to be taken away (in the above scripture) are the saints in a rapture.  But  it's the wicked who are going away.  See Proverbs 2:22; 10:30; and 11:31, and scripture cannot be broken.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We can also see in Isaiah 1:1-9 in light of The Lord Jesus Christ's second coming. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" &gt;The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.&lt;br /&gt;Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the LORD hath spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me.&lt;br /&gt;The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master's crib: but Israel doth not know, my people doth not consider.&lt;br /&gt;Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the LORD, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward.&lt;br /&gt;Why should ye be stricken any more? ye will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.&lt;br /&gt;From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrifying sores: they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified with ointment.&lt;br /&gt;Your country is desolate, your cities are burned with fire: your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.&lt;br /&gt;And the daughter of Zion is left as a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city.&lt;br /&gt;Except the LORD of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like unto Gomorrah.&lt;/span&gt;"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isaiah re-enforces this view in 66:16-17&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" &gt;For by fire and by his sword will the LORD plead with all flesh: and the slain of the LORD shall be many.&lt;br /&gt;They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the LORD.&lt;/span&gt;"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In other words, the people who hide in the pews, not caring for the poor, watching their television shows and sports venues, are not going to make it.  Actually, there isn't going to be a whole lot of survivors after our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ returns.  What does Nahum say?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;"&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-size:85%;" &gt;God is jealous, and the LORD revengeth; the LORD revengeth, and is furious; the LORD will take vengeance on his adversaries, and he reserveth wrath for his enemies.&lt;br /&gt;The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked: the LORD hath his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.&lt;br /&gt;He rebuketh the sea, and maketh it dry, and drieth up all the rivers: Bashan languisheth, and Carmel, and the flower of Lebanon languisheth.&lt;br /&gt;The mountains quake at him, and the hills melt, and the earth is burned at his presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein.&lt;br /&gt;Who can stand before his indignation? and who can abide in the fierceness of his anger? his fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are thrown down by him.&lt;br /&gt;The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him.&lt;br /&gt;But with an overrunning flood he will make an utter end of the place thereof, and darkness shall pursue his enemies.&lt;br /&gt;What do ye imagine against the LORD? he will make an utter end: affliction shall not rise up the second time.&lt;br /&gt;For while they be folden together as thorns, and while they are drunken as drunkards, they shall be devoured as stubble fully dry.&lt;br /&gt;There is one come out of thee, that imagineth evil against the LORD, a wicked counsellor.&lt;br /&gt;Thus saith the LORD; Though they be quiet, and likewise many, yet thus shall they be cut down, when he shall pass through. Though I have afflicted thee, I will afflict thee no more.&lt;br /&gt;For now will I break his yoke from off thee, and will burst thy bonds in sunder.&lt;br /&gt;And the LORD hath given a commandment concerning thee, that no more of thy name be sown: out of the house of thy gods will I cut off the graven image and the molten image: I will make thy grave; for thou art vile.&lt;br /&gt;Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace! O Judah, keep thy solemn feasts, perform thy vows: for the wicked shall no more pass through thee; he is utterly cut off.&lt;/span&gt;"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: right;"&gt;Nahum 1:2-15&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;The story doesn't end there.  Nahum, Chapter 2 says:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" &gt;He that dasheth in pieces is come up before thy face: keep the munition, watch the way, make thy loins strong, fortify thy power mightily.&lt;br /&gt;For the LORD hath turned away the excellency of Jacob, as the excellency of Israel: for the emptiers have emptied them out, and marred their vine branches.&lt;br /&gt;The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet: the chariots shall be with flaming torches in the day of his preparation, and the fir trees shall be terribly shaken.&lt;br /&gt;The chariots shall rage in the streets, they shall justle one against another in the broad ways: they shall seem like torches, they shall run like the lightnings.&lt;br /&gt;He shall recount his worthies: they shall stumble in their walk; they shall make haste to the wall thereof, and the defence shall be prepared.&lt;br /&gt;The gates of the rivers shall be opened, and the palace shall be dissolved.&lt;br /&gt;And Huzzab shall be led away captive, she shall be brought up, and her maids shall lead her as with the voice of doves, tabering upon their breasts.&lt;br /&gt;But Nineveh is of old like a pool of water: yet they shall flee away. Stand, stand, shall they cry; but none shall look back.&lt;br /&gt;Take ye the spoil of silver, take the spoil of gold: for there is none end of the store and glory out of all the pleasant furniture.&lt;br /&gt;She is empty, and void, and waste: and the heart melteth, and the knees smite together, and much pain is in all loins, and the faces of them all gather blackness.&lt;br /&gt;Where is the dwelling of the lions, and the feedingplace of the young lions, where the lion, even the old lion, walked, and the lion's whelp, and none made them afraid?&lt;br /&gt;The lion did tear in pieces enough for his whelps, and strangled for his lionesses, and filled his holes with prey, and his dens with ravin.&lt;br /&gt;Behold, I am against thee, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will burn her chariots in the smoke, and the sword shall devour thy young lions: and I will cut off thy prey from the earth, and the voice of thy messengers shall no more be heard.&lt;/span&gt;"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Moving on to Zephaniah 1:2-18 we can read more about the second coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-size:85%;" &gt;I will utterly consume all things from off the land, saith the LORD.&lt;br /&gt;I will consume man and beast; I will consume the fowls of the heaven, and the fishes of the sea, and the stumblingblocks with the wicked; and I will cut off man from off the land, saith the LORD.&lt;br /&gt;I will also stretch out mine hand upon Judah, and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and I will cut off the remnant of Baal from this place, and the name of the Chemarims with the priests;&lt;br /&gt;And them that worship the host of heaven upon the housetops; and them that worship and that swear by the LORD, and that swear by Malcham;&lt;br /&gt;And them that are turned back from the LORD; and those that have not sought the LORD, nor enquired for him.&lt;br /&gt;Hold thy peace at the presence of the Lord GOD: for the day of the LORD is at hand: for the LORD hath prepared a sacrifice, he hath bid his guests.&lt;br /&gt;And it shall come to pass in the day of the LORD'S sacrifice, that I will punish the princes, and the king's children, and all such as are clothed with strange apparel.&lt;br /&gt;In the same day also will I punish all those that leap on the threshold, which fill their masters' houses with violence and deceit.&lt;br /&gt;And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD, that there shall be the noise of a cry from the fish gate, and an howling from the second, and a great crashing from the hills.&lt;br /&gt;Howl, ye inhabitants of Maktesh, for all the merchant people are cut down; all they that bear silver are cut off.&lt;br /&gt;And it shall come to pass at that time, that I will search Jerusalem with candles, and punish the men that are settled on their lees: that say in their heart, The LORD will not do good, neither will he do evil.&lt;br /&gt;Therefore their goods shall become a booty, and their houses a desolation: they shall also build houses, but not inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, but not drink the wine thereof.&lt;br /&gt;The great day of the LORD is near, it is near, and hasteth greatly, even the voice of the day of the LORD: the mighty man shall cry there bitterly.&lt;br /&gt;That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of wasteness and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness,&lt;br /&gt;A day of the trumpet and alarm against the fenced cities, and against the high towers.&lt;br /&gt;And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against the LORD: and their blood shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as the dung.&lt;br /&gt;Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them in the day of the LORD'S wrath; but the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of his jealousy: for he shall make even a speedy riddance of all them that dwell in the land.&lt;/span&gt;"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I encourage you to read all of Zephaniah.  But I'm going to wrap this up with Zephaniah 3:1-20&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-size:85%;" &gt;Woe to her that is filthy and polluted, to the oppressing city!&lt;br /&gt;She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; she trusted not in the LORD; she drew not near to her God.&lt;br /&gt;Her princes within her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves; they gnaw not the bones till the morrow.&lt;br /&gt;Her prophets are light and treacherous persons: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law.&lt;br /&gt;The just LORD is in the midst thereof; he will not do iniquity: every morning doth he bring his judgment to light, he faileth not; but the unjust knoweth no shame.&lt;br /&gt;I have cut off the nations: their towers are desolate; I made their streets waste, that none passeth by: their cities are destroyed, so that there is no man, that there is none inhabitant.&lt;br /&gt;I said, Surely thou wilt fear me, thou wilt receive instruction; so their dwelling should not be cut off, howsoever I punished them: but they rose early, and corrupted all their doings.&lt;br /&gt;Therefore wait ye upon me, saith the LORD, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.&lt;br /&gt;For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of the LORD, to serve him with one consent.&lt;br /&gt;From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia my suppliants, even the daughter of my dispersed, shall bring mine offering.&lt;br /&gt;In that day shalt thou not be ashamed for all thy doings, wherein thou hast transgressed against me: for then I will take away out of the midst of thee them that rejoice in thy pride, and thou shalt no more be haughty because of my holy mountain.&lt;br /&gt;I will also leave in the midst of thee an afflicted and poor people, and they shall trust in the name of the LORD.&lt;br /&gt;The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies; neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall feed and lie down, and none shall make them afraid.&lt;br /&gt;Sing, O daughter of Zion; shout, O Israel; be glad and rejoice with all the heart, O daughter of Jerusalem.&lt;br /&gt;The LORD hath taken away thy judgments, he hath cast out thine enemy: the king of Israel, even the LORD, is in the midst of thee: thou shalt not see evil any more.&lt;br /&gt;In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear thou not: and to Zion, Let not thine hands be slack.&lt;br /&gt;The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.&lt;br /&gt;I will gather them that are sorrowful for the solemn assembly, who are of thee, to whom the reproach of it was a burden.&lt;br /&gt;Behold, at that time I will undo all that afflict thee: and I will save her that halteth, and gather her that was driven out; and I will get them praise and fame in every land where they have been put to shame.&lt;br /&gt;At that time will I bring you again, even in the time that I gather you: for I will make you a name and a praise among all people of the earth, when I turn back your captivity before your eyes, saith the LORD.&lt;/span&gt;"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I encourage those who read this post to not believe any of the prophecies in this day and age.

Newt Gingrich, premier  neocon and corrupt former House Speaker, has been given the nod. Already  a campaign war chest of over $20 million has been gathered for  Gingrich’s use. Eventually, up to a quarter billion dollars will be  amassed.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="ex1"&gt;Why Gingrich? Others in contention include former Alaska  Governor Sarah Palin, Virginia Congressman Eric Cantor, former  Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, and former Arkansas Governor Mike  Huckabee. Palin has been told she must continue to be the new feminine  “Jerry Falwell,” sweetheart of the Judaizer throngs in the Christian  evangelical community. In that capacity, Palin well serves the elite,  rousing the Christian right to support radical Israeli causes, such as a  major future war against Iran and continued brutality against Israel’s  hapless neighbors, the Palestinians and the Lebanese.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="ex1"&gt;Mitt Romney may well end up as the GOP’s vice  presidential candidate. His attractive physical features, the elite  believe, will bring in female voters to support a Gingrich-Romney  ticket.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="ex1"&gt;Mike Huckabee has already been amply rewarded for his  ingenious 2008 campaign in which he split the conservative vote,  enabling the liberal neocon and Rothschild favorite, the doddering John  McCain, to slide in as the Republican’s man for the White House. That,  of course, in turn, insured that Barack Obama would win in the general  election, since most traditional Republicans, disgusted at being forced  to choose between tweedledee (McCain) and tweedledum (Obama), simply  stayed home on election day.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="ex1"&gt;Eric Cantor, a young House Representative from Virginia,  is also being boosted by the Party pros as a potential VP choice. Inept  and incompetent as he is, Cantor, after all, is a Jew. The billionaire  Jews who own the Republican Party are eager to see one of their own  sitting just a heartbeat away from the Oval Office. Then, at the crack  of an assassin’s bullet, the President could be slain and—ka-ching!—the  cash registers would be rung as President Cantor, an ardent Zionist Jew  and Israel-firster, is sworn in.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.texemarrs.com/images/opus_dei_work_logo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 430px; height: 425px;" src="http://www.texemarrs.com/images/opus_dei_work_logo.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-family:arial;font-size:78%;"  &gt;This Opus Dei image is said to represent the work required of its members.

He has been  ultra-loyal both to the Jewish money men and to the secretive Vatican  group Opus Dei, another group of money men. A fanatical Israel  supporter, Gingrich is continually pimping for more wars and death in  the Middle East. He supported the Bush torture and gulags and can be  counted on to siphon trillions from the U.S. Treasury into the coffers  of Wall Street’s Jewish bankers and ponzi scheme artists.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To prepare Gingrich for his role as Rothschild front man in 2012, Newt  recently “converted” to Catholicism. In February, 2010, some 500  Catholic millionaires, initiates of the Opus Dei affiliate Legatus, met  in Dana Point, California to honor Gingrich and former President and  Jew-Catholic loyalist George W. Bush. Gingrich was lauded by the group  for his conversion and even gave his “Christian testimony” regarding his  leaving the Southern Baptist denomination to become a convert to “Holy  Mother Church.” His new wife—his third—was on hand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.texemarrs.com/images/opus_dei_hq_usa.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 271px; height: 425px;" src="http://www.texemarrs.com/images/opus_dei_hq_usa.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-size:78%;" &gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-family:Arial;font-size:78%;"  &gt;The influential Catholic Order, Opus  Dei, has branches across the globe.

The  Jesuit Order is, in fact, a crypto-Jewish organization and Spitzer is  one of the many Jews who claims to have converted to Catholicism. He and  the debauched Gingrich must have really been laughing up their sleeves.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="ex1"&gt;Legatus has some 1,800 members, with a heavy presence in  the United Sates, Canada, and Ireland. Gingrich thrilled the attendees  in California by showing them the new film his company, Gingrich  Productions, has produced about the “exemplary life of the late Pope  John Paul II.” The theme of the Legatus conference was “Challenging the  Culture.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h1 style="text-align: center; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Gingrich’s Third Wave Plan for America&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;  &lt;p class="ex1"&gt;And just what kind of “culture” does Mr. Gingrich want to see take hold in America? In my insightful, eye-opening book, &lt;a href="http://www.texemarrs.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&amp;amp;Store_Code=catalog&amp;amp;Product_Code=bbtm_circle_of_intrigue"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);"&gt;Circle of Intrigue&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;,  I unmask the traitorous anti-American intentions of Gingrich and his  associates in crime. “I have an enormous political ambition,” Gingrich  told the &lt;em&gt;Washington Post&lt;/em&gt;. “I want to shift the entire planet and I’m doing it.”&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="ex1"&gt;This planetary shift of Gingrich’s takes a number of  dangerous forms. It is, in fact, all part of the revolutionary socialist  movement which Gingrich calls the “Third Wave.” The Plan calls for  nothing less than to radically change America into a fascist “paradise”  with citizens stripped of constitutional rights. What is planned is a  virtual high tech prison, an Orwellian Police State superintended by the  self-appointed “Masters.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.texemarrs.com/images/newt_gingrich_102010.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 368px; height: 450px;" src="http://www.texemarrs.com/images/newt_gingrich_102010.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-family:arial;font-size:78%;"  &gt;Newt Gingrich former Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, strongly endorsed the book, &lt;i&gt;Creating a New Civilization&lt;/i&gt;,  by Alvin and Heidi Toffler. That notorious book, in turn, parrots the  scheme of the Illuminati to destroy the Constitution of the United  States and set up a Fascist World Order. Significantly, Newt Gingrich is  a member of the CFR and also the World Future Society. As shown on one  of their publications, the logo of the World Future Society appears  strikingly similar to a circular, 6-6-6 configuration.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class="ex1"&gt;Gingrich has not been shy about presenting his “Third  Wave” Plan. He flatly states that his goal is to end the old America  forever. Insiders Alvin and Heidi Toffler (Jews) enlisted the  endorsement of Gingrich and the three set forth this plan in the  Tofflers’ sinister Illuminist volume, &lt;em&gt;Creating a New Civilization&lt;/em&gt;.  Gingrich actually wrote the foreword for this ungodly, anti-American  book. Here are just a few of Third Wave principles espoused in the book  by the Tofflers and Gingrich:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;center&gt; &lt;table border="0" width="90%"&gt;   &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;     &lt;td&gt;    &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;em&gt;The time has come for the next  great step forward in American politics. It is not a matter of Democrats  versus Republicans, or of left and right...but something more  significant...a clear distinction between rear-guard politicians who  wish to preserve or restore an unworkable past and those who are ready  to transition to what we call a “Third Wave” information-age society…&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;em&gt;A new civilization is emerging in  our lives, and blind men everywhere are trying to suppress it. This new  civilization brings with it new family styles, changed ways...a new  economy, new political conflicts, and...altered consciousness...  Humanity faces a quantum leap forward. This is the meaning of the Third  Wave…&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;em&gt;Our argument is based on what we call the “revolutionary premise”... The revolutionary premise liberates our intellect and will.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;em&gt;Nationalism is...First Wave. The  globalization of business and finance required by advancing Third Wave  economies routinely punctures the national “sovereignty” the  nationalists hold so dear...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;em&gt;As economies are transformed by  the Third Wave, they are compelled to surrender part of their  sovereignty... Poets and intellectuals of Third Wave states sing the  virtues of a “borderless” world and “planetary consciousness.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;em&gt;The Third Wave...demassifies culture, values, and morality... There are more diverse religious belief systems.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;em&gt;The Constitution of the United  States needs to be reconsidered and altered...to create a whole new  structure of government... Building a Third Wave civilization on the  wreckage of Second Wave institutions involves the design of new, more  appropriate political structures... The system that served us so well  must, in its turn, die and be replaced.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;            &lt;/td&gt;   &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt; &lt;/center&gt;  &lt;h1 style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Gingrich’s Goals: Smash Christianity and End American Sovereignty&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;  &lt;p class="ex1"&gt;To say that these proposals mesh with the Plan and Great  Work of the Satanists of the Illuminati hierarchy is a gross  understatement. Even Barack Obama and his cohorts do not have the  boldness and the gall to so clearly elaborate the goals of the elite.  Gingrich and Toffler openly declare their goals: to smash Christianity,  end American sovereignty, erase all national borders, wreck our entire  existing civilization and kill off America’s 200-plus year  constitutional history forever. Gingrich is a Communist revolutionary  who dares to state outright that he intends to destroy the United States  and set up a totalitarian New World Order.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h1 style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Gingrich Lionized by the Republican Party&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;  &lt;p class="ex1"&gt;Yet amazingly, Texe Marrs is apparently the only man in  the world who has reported on this atrocity of Newt Gingrich’s. The man  continues to be lionized by the Republican Party. He is a frequent  “talking head”—indeed, he is a paid contributor—for Fox News TV channel,  and everywhere the elite applaud his every move! And now, if our Jewish  controllers have their way, this vicious traitor to the American way of  life will be the Republican Party’s standard-bearer in the sweepstakes  for the American presidency.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h1 style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Obama Being Watched&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;  &lt;p class="ex1"&gt;For the moment, Barack Obama is doing just fine as far as  the Illuminati fraternity is concerned. His Administration, guided by  Jewish swindlers like Rahm Emanuel, David Axelrod, Timothy Geithner, and  Ben Bernanke, has loaded up the globalists banks with over 37 trillion  dollars of stolen taxpayers’ money. They were able to push through the  greatest socialist scheme in American history with the “Obamacare” scam,  and so things are going swimmingly well for the super-rich who monitor  things behind-the-scenes. But if Obama should falter, they will not  hesitate in 2012 to replace the half-blood prince of Chicago with a more  promising puppet—a Gingrich, for example, or even a Palin, Romney, or  Cantor.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h1 style="text-align: center; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Hillary Always an Option&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;  &lt;p class="ex1"&gt;There’s also the ominous specter of Hillary always  lurking in the shadows. President Bill Clinton’s eight year reign is a  very fond memory for the elite. Why not a re-run with lesbian  flourishes, courtesy of the ubiquitous Secretary of State, Hillary  Rodham Clinton? The best part, in their thinking, is that Hillary is a  Jew. She even told &lt;em&gt;The New Yorker&lt;/em&gt; magazine that her grandmother  spoke Yiddish in her home and cooked Jewish delicacies in the Rodham  (her maiden name) kitchen. Now that’s a good fit for President in  Rothschild’s eyes. So, as both the lesbian, Wiccan hag friends of  Hillary and the Masonic occultists of the Jewish Kehilla might say, &lt;em&gt;“So mote it be!”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: right;"&gt;--By Texe Marrs&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5196052296126723727-5159538137855560434?l=johntimothyvian.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.texemarrs.com/102010/choice_for_2012.htm' title='Newt Gingrich is Their Chosen as the Republican Party&apos;s Nominee for President'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/feeds/5159538137855560434/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5196052296126723727&amp;postID=5159538137855560434' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/5159538137855560434'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/5159538137855560434'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/2011/01/newt-gingrich-is-their-chosen-as.html' title='Newt Gingrich is Their Chosen as the Republican Party&apos;s Nominee for President'/><author><name>John T.

Yes, Satan too  sends a Yule letter, and no, I was not on his mailing list. I think  Satan's Holiday cheer should give us all pause.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;To my fallen angels Beelzebub, Lucifer  and Leviathan, princes of Hell's demons, and to my minions, lackeys,  toadies and sycophants on Earth:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;As you know, this time of year usually  finds me quite despondent, as the Prince of Peace's influence waxes most  atrociously around his birthday. But &lt;strong&gt;this year I am in fine  spirits, nay, let me even declare myself absolutely giddy, for the  destruction of the United States of America draws ever nearer.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;Though &lt;strong&gt;my minions have long sown festering seeds of hate and disharmony&lt;/strong&gt; in that now-benighted land, only recently have &lt;strong&gt;my  favored weapons of destruction--leverage, debt, half-truths and  endless, preening justifications for greed, sloth, lust, pride, envy,  anger and gluttony&lt;/strong&gt;--have been unleashed to worm their way &lt;strong&gt;into the stricken &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;heart&lt;/span&gt; of that Republic&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;My most treasured hopes of destitution and conflict in the U.S.A. are nearing fruition.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;First, &lt;strong&gt;my minions in the Federal Reserve&lt;/strong&gt;--such  loyal servants!--and the Federal government have unleashed a veritable  orgy of leverage and debt upon the land, spreading ruination under the  false guise of prosperity. What a delicious irony, that the fools doomed  to eternal damnation in my Empire believe themselves prosperous as they  absorb the poison of exponentially rising leverage and debt.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;They have made a mockery of the rule of  law, openly flouting it by letting financial crimes go not just  unpunished but rewarded. The blatant injustice that roams the land like a  foul, slobbering beast--there are &lt;strong&gt;two sets of laws&lt;/strong&gt; and  two sets of books now, one for the financial Elites and their political  toadies, and another one for the tax donkeys beneath them--this will  eventually ignite the firestorm I seek.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;American extravagance has surpassed even my highest expectations, as purveyors of luxury goods reap record profits, and the &lt;strong&gt;childish desire for instant gratification&lt;/strong&gt; has become the unspoken ruler of the land. &lt;strong&gt;Convenience is now worshipped as a god, sitting triumphant beside entitlement, greed and willful ignorance&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;Convenience is, as you all know, the name of a peculiarly slick slide into Hell.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;One of my favorite sins, gluttony, is  running amok, with half of the people groaning under their own weight,  sickened and weakened. &lt;strong&gt;My loyal minions in the fast-food and  packaged food industries have followed my plans to perfection, and my  lackeys in the marketing and media have fueled the instant gratification  and ignorance&lt;/strong&gt; which insidiously undermine even the greatest empires.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pride--oh, how the Americans excel at hubris and pride! The Federal Reserve chairman&lt;/strong&gt;, bless his doomed soul, has declared himself 100% confident about an economy that is nothing but a confidence game. Oh, &lt;strong&gt;what joy to hear his lies spoken with such confidence!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The mere thought of the word greed cause me to chuckle delightedly&lt;/strong&gt;,  as the U.S. excels as a haven for greed without bounds, a greed so  boundless that the entire universe would be insufficient to satisfy its  bankers, hedge fund managers, high-frequency traders, Imperial factotums  and politicians. &lt;strong&gt;How happy I am to see their greed grease their way into Hell&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I feel like dancing a jig when I hear the unbridled sense of entitlement which has poisoned the American spirit&lt;/strong&gt;.  Yes, let greed and avarice be cloaked with rationalizations--"I was  promised," "It's my right," "I deserve it," "it's in our contract"--it  is wondrous indeed how my secret invention, "free money," debilitates  once-independent souls.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Anger is now overflowing everywhere, building my empire&lt;/strong&gt;  with every thoughtless word. Politicians rage against each other, the  people rage against the politicians, and behind the scenes my servants  in the political action committees feed the anger with billions of  dollars in campaign donations. How amusing to see the politicos lay  claim to noble ideals even as they scramble on their knees to collect  the millions tossed at their feet to do my bidding.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;Oh yes, my bidding, for &lt;strong&gt;their greed, pride and anger are my bidding&lt;/strong&gt;. By all means, &lt;strong&gt;politicians, do my work&lt;/strong&gt;:  give tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy, let financial crimes go  unpunished, allow the financial Elites' looting to go unhindered,  transfer the wealth earned by the citizens' sweat to the financial  Elites when their trillion-dollar bets go bad--fuel &lt;strong&gt;the anger which will&lt;/strong&gt; tear you from power, and &lt;strong&gt;tear the country apart&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I laughed with glee when One Beholden To Me announced that he was doing "God's work"&lt;/strong&gt;--how  I love twisting together irony and lies! He fooled no one, of course,  for even the most deluded souls know he is doing My Work, not the  Lord's, but they are too distracted by games and ginned-up contests to  care.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Not caring is doing my work, too, of course&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The nation bleeds itself with unwinnable wars&lt;/strong&gt;, sacrificing its best youth on the altar of endless war--&lt;strong&gt;how  can I not rejoice at this orgy of death, destruction and sowing of  hate? The feeble liars at the nation's helm print endless sums&lt;/strong&gt; to fund war and to prop up vile tyrants, but offer nothing for libraries or literacy or the curing of malaria. &lt;strong&gt;How can I not rejoice&lt;/strong&gt;  at a nation which finds trillions for war and next to nothing to fight  the diseases of the poor residents of former colonies, including that  Prince of Disease, ignorance.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;As for sloth--that millions are being paid to sit around watching television instead of being productive&lt;/strong&gt;  creates the perfect breeding ground for resentment, malice and envy.  How perfect to pay people to sit at home and rot away, with only their  discontent and despair for company.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;As you know all too well, idle hands end up doing my piecework for free.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;It was &lt;strong&gt;almost beyond my dreams to find the nation's wealth and politics so dominated by a tiny handful of wealthy financial plutocrats&lt;/strong&gt;--they  are doing my bidding without hindrance, though I see by their troubled  sleep that they know where their greed and rationalizations are taking  them. To channel the nation's wealth to a few hands--what better way to  nurture envy and anger?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;If ignorance were treasure, the American political class must be declared wealthier than Midas, for &lt;strong&gt;its ignorance has reached a pinnacle I can truly admire&lt;/strong&gt;.  Ensnared by their lust for power, blinded by their greed for fame and  perquisites, they look no further than the next election cycle, dooming  their nation to division, disharmony and the desolation of permanent  conflict over the dwindling productive assets of this once-great nation.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The people cry out to be saved by the government, as if it was a Savior&lt;/strong&gt;  instead of a vast combine chewing through the wealth of the nation,  "investing" it in corruption, parasitic financial Elites, military  misadventures, &lt;strong&gt;Homeland "Security"--ha, isn't that a jewel&lt;/strong&gt;, as the nation withers from within--and the steady, unyielding oppression of the remaining productive members of society.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;When the people cheer "We're  number One," I cheer with them, for pride goeth before a fall. When they  believe the half-truths, the illusions, the mispresentations, the  misdirections and yes, the outright lies of the ruling class repeated by  their toadies in the media, I can no longer restrain my delight, for  lies and half-truths are my favored weapons of destruction&lt;/strong&gt;. &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The leaders&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; are themselves leaderless, blank, &lt;strong&gt;hollowed-out souls doing the bidding of their parasitic masters&lt;/strong&gt;, focused only on keeping the corrupt and venal status quo together for a few more months, never looking out ten years.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I delight in that shortsightedness, that abject fear of change and transformation, that clinging to failure and pride, that &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;refusal to face reality&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;For &lt;strong&gt;the U.S.A. is now an Empire of Debt and Lies&lt;/strong&gt;, its fraudulent financial system built on misrepresentations of risk and value, and &lt;strong&gt;its "economy of confidence" a con game&lt;/strong&gt;  based on illusory wealth, parasitic skimming, government gaming and tax  donkeys paying for their Financial Masters' idiotic mistakes.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This adolescent desire to believe the lies&lt;/strong&gt;, because in believing the lies &lt;strong&gt;then nothing need change&lt;/strong&gt;--this might be &lt;strong&gt;my most powerful destructive tool&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A hunger for fantasy and  illusion, a fear of adaptation, a childish demand for instant  gratification--these are forces I can rely on to lead the once-great  country to absolute ruin&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;And here is the beautifully evil part, my  minions--no external enemy is required [though Russia and China are  waiting in the wings - editor]. &lt;strong&gt;The Americans are destroying themselves&lt;/strong&gt;  with their reliance on leverage, debt, denial, half-truths and  overflowing servings of the Seven Deadly Sins, all of which they have  elevated to "assets" in their hopelessly twisted values. To be supremely  unproductive, a churner of lies and financial trickery, is now the most  rewarded and admired state in America.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The spiritual rot is now so deep and pervasive that the people no longer even recognize the decay&lt;/strong&gt; --they have been&lt;strong&gt; lulled into a false belief&lt;/strong&gt; that this culture of fraud, embezzlement, manipulations, propaganda and parasitic financial Elites has always held sway. &lt;strong&gt;This  is precisely how a people act when they have lost their way,  spiritually and morally: they elevate sins to virtues, and forget the  lessons of their past&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;And of course everyone &lt;strong&gt;claiming that there is no spiritual vacuum sucking the nation dry&lt;/strong&gt;, that the status quo is simply &lt;strong&gt;"business as usual"--they are doing my work, too&lt;/strong&gt;, for habituating to all that is corrupt and reprehensible, &lt;strong&gt;all that is lacking in integrity and honesty, this is doing my work most admirably&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;Americans no longer hate me, they hate sacrifice, with a passion that &lt;strong&gt;enlivens my enthusiasm for their self-destruction&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How can I not be pleased this  season? At long last, the destruction of the United States by its own  citizens is close at hand. Give me two years, minions, no more than  four, and I shall insure they will finally begin reaping what they have  sown. Ignorance&lt;/strong&gt;, my poor dear Americans, &lt;strong&gt;will not save you&lt;/strong&gt;, nor will your endless parade of excuses, justifications and rationalizations. Indeed, &lt;strong&gt;they are my weapons which you drive deeper into your nation's &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;heart&lt;/span&gt; with every lie, every excuse, every frantic justification&lt;/strong&gt; for your own entitlement.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I await 2011 with high expectations&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;Most sincerely yours,&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="padding-left: 30px;"&gt;Satan&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5196052296126723727-8545906014049150907?l=johntimothyvian.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.oftwominds.com/blogdec10/Devils-Christmas-Letter12-10.html' title='The Devil&apos;s Christmas Letter (December 17, 2010)'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/feeds/8545906014049150907/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5196052296126723727&amp;postID=8545906014049150907' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/8545906014049150907'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/8545906014049150907'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/2010/12/devils-christmas-letter-december-17.html' title='The Devil&apos;s Christmas Letter (December 17, 2010)'/><author><name>John T.

The substance of two posthumous discourses.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Revelation   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"  &gt;         18:20, "&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Rejoice over her thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets;    for God hath avenged you on her.&lt;/span&gt;"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"&gt;   &lt;span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"  &gt;       &lt;br /&gt; Introduction&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; IN this chapter we have a very particular account of the fall of    Babylon, or the antichristian church, and of the vengeance of God    executed upon her. Here it is proclaimed that Babylon the great is    fallen, and become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul    spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird; that her sins had    reached unto heaven, and that God had remembered her iniquity that God    gave commandment to reward her, as she had rewarded others, to double    unto her double according to her works; in the cup she had filled, to    fill to her double, and how much she had glorified herself, and lived    deliciously, so much torment and sorrow to give her. And it is declared,    that these plagues are come upon her in one day, death, mourning, and    famine; and that she should be utterly burnt with fire; because strong    is the Lord who judgeth her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; These things have respect partly to the overthrow of the antichristian    church this world, and partly to the vengeance of God upon her in the    world to come. There is no necessity to suppose, that such extreme    torments as are here mentioned will ever be executed upon papists, or    upon the antichristian church, in this world. There will indeed be a    dreadful and visible overthrow of that idolatrous church in this world.    But we are not to understand the plagues here mentioned as exclusive of    the vengeance which God will execute on the wicked upholders and    promoters of antichristianism, and on the cruel antichristian    persecutors, in another world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; This is evident by ver. 3, of the next chapter, where, with reference to    the same destruction of antichrist which is spoken of in this chapter,    it is said, "Her smoke rose up forever and ever;" in which words the    eternal punishment of antichrist is evidently spoken of. Antichrist is    here represented as being cast into hell, and there remaining forever    after; he hath no place anywhere else but in hell. This is evident by    ver. 20 of the next chapter, where, concerning the destruction of    antichrist, it is said, "And the beast was taken, and with him the false    prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them    that received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image.    These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone."  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Not but that the wicked antichristians have in all ages gone to hell as    they died, and not merely at the fall of antichrist; but then the wrath    of God against antichrist, of which damnation is the fruit, will be made    eminently visible here on earth, by many remarkable tokens. Then    antichrist will be confined to hell, and will have no more place here on    earth; much after the same manner as the devil is said at the beginning    of Christ's thousand years' reign on earth, to be cast into the    bottomless pit, as you may see in the beginning of the twentieth    chapter. Not but that he had his place in the bottomless pit before; he    was cast down to hell when he fell at first: 2 Peter 2:4, "Cast them    down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness." But now, when    he shall be suffered to deceive the nations no more, his kingdom will be    confined to hell.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; In this text is contained part of what John heard uttered upon this    occasion; and in these words we may observe,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; 1. To whom this voice is directed, viz., to the holy prophets and    apostles and the rest of the inhabitants of the heavenly world. When God    shall pour out his wrath upon the antichristian church, it will he seen,    and taken notice of, by all the inhabitants of heaven, even by holy    prophets and apostles. Neither will they see as unconcerned spectators.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; 2. What they are called upon by the voice to do, viz. to rejoice over    Babylon now destroyed, and lying under the wrath of God. They are not    directed to rejoice over her in prosperity, but in flames, and beholding    the smoke of her burning ascending up for ever and ever.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; 3. A reason given: for God hath avenged YOU ON HER; i.e., God hath    executed just vengeance upon her, for shedding your blood, and cruelly    persecuting you. For thus the matter is represented, that antichrist had    been guilty of shedding the blood of the holy prophets and apostles, as    in chap. 16:6, "For they have shed the blood of saints and of prophets."    And in ver. 24 of this context, "In her was found the blood of prophets    and of saints, and of all them that were slain on the earth." Not that    antichrist had literally shed the blood, of the prophets and apostles;    but he had shed the blood of those who were their followers, who were of    the same spirit, and of the same church, and same mystical body. The    prophets and apostles in heaven are nearly related and united to the    saints on earth; they live, as it were, in true Christians in all ages.    So that by slaying these, persecutors show that they would slay the    prophets and apostles, if they could; and they indeed do it as much as    in them lies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; On the same account, Christ says of the Jews in his time, Luke 11:50,    "That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation    of the world, may be required of this generation; from the blood of    Abel, unto the blood of Zacharias, which perished between the altar and    the temple: verily I say unto you, it shall be required of this    generation." So Christ himself is said to have been crucified in the    antichristian church, chap. 11:8: "And their dead; bodies shall lie in    the street of the great City, which spiritually is called Sodom and    Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified." So all the inhabitants of    heaven, all the saints from the beginning of the world, and the angels    also, are called upon to rejoice over Babylon, because of God's    vengeance upon her, wherein he avenges them: they all of them had in    effect been injured and persecuted by antichrist. Indeed they are not    called upon to rejoice in having their revenge glutted, but in seeing    justice executed, and in seeing the love and tenderness of God towards    them, manifested in his severity towards their enemies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; SECTION 1.&lt;br /&gt; When the saints in glory shall see the wrath of God executed on ungodly    men, it will be no occasion of grief to them, but of rejoicing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; It is not only the sight of God's wrath executed on those wicked men who    are of the antichristian church, which will be occasion of rejoicing to    the saints in glory; but also the sight of the destruction of all God's    enemies: whether they have been the followers of antichrist or not, that    alters not the case, if they have been the enemies of God, and of Jesus    Christ. All wicked men will at last be destroyed together, as being    united in the same cause and interest, as being all of Satan's army.    They will all stand together at the day of judgment, as being all of the    same company.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; And if we understand the text to have respect only to a temporal    execution of God's wrath on his enemies, that will not alter the case.    The thing they are called upon to rejoice at, is the execution of God's    wrath upon his and their enemies. And if it be matter of rejoicing to    them to see justice executed in part upon them, or to see the beginning    of the execution of it in this world; for the same reason will they    rejoice with greater joy, in beholding it fully executed. For the thing    here mentioned as the foundation of their joy, is the execution of just    vengeance: Rejoice, for God hath avenged you on her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Prop. I. The glorified saints will see the wrath of God executed upon    ungodly men. This the Scriptures plainly teach us, that the righteous    and the wicked in the other world see each other's state. Thus the rich    man in hell, and Lazarus and Abraham in heaven, are represented as    seeing each other's opposite states, in the 16th chap. of Luke. The    wicked in their misery will see the saints in the kingdom of heaven.    Luke 13:28, 29, "There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye    shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets in the    kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out."&lt;br /&gt; So the saints in glory will see the misery of the wicked under the wrath    of God. Isa. 64:24, "And they shall go forth and look on the carcasses    of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not    die, neither shall their fire be quenched." And Rev. 14:. 9, 10, "If any    man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his    forehead, or in his hand, the same shall drink of the wine of the wrath    of God, which is poured out without mixture, into the cup of his    indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone, in the    presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb." The    saints are not here mentioned, being included in Christ, as his members.    The church is the fulness of Christ, and is called Christ, I Cor. 12:12+    So in the 19th chapter, ver. 2, 3, the smoke of Babylon's torment is    represented as rising up forever and ever, in the sight of the heavenly    inhabitants.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; At the day of judgment, the saints in glory at Christ's right hand, will    see the wicked at the left hand in their amazement and horror, will hear    the judge pronounce sentence upon them, saying, " Depart, ye cursed,    into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels;" and will    see them go away into everlasting punishment. But the Scripture seems to    hold forth to us, that the saints will not only see the misery of the    wicked at the day of judgment, but the forementioned texts imply, that    the state of the damned in hell will be in the view of the heavenly    inhabitants; that the two worlds of happiness and misery will be in view    of each other. Though we know not by what means, nor after what manner,    it will be; yet the Scriptures certainly lead us to think, that they    will some way or other have a direct and immediate apprehension of each    other's state. The saints in glory will see how the damned are    tormented; they will see God's threatenings fulfilled, and his wrath    executed upon them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Prop. II. When they shall see it, it will be no occasion of grief to    them. The miseries of the damned in hell will be inconceivably great.    When they shall come to bear the wrath of the Almighty poured out upon    them without mixture, and executed upon them without pity or restraint,    or any mitigation; it will doubtless cause anguish, and horror, and    amazement vastly beyond all the sufferings and torments that ever any    man endured in this world; yea, beyond all extent of our words or    thoughts. For God in executing wrath upon ungodly men will act like an    Almighty God. The Scripture calls this wrath, God's and the fierceness    of his wrath; and we are told that this is to show God's wrath, and to    make his power known; or to make known how dreadful his wrath is, and    how great his power.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; The saints in glory will see this, and be far more sensible of it than    now we can possibly be. They will be far more sensible how dreadful the    wrath of God is, and will better understand how terrible the sufferings    of the damned are; yet this will be no occasion of grief to them. They    will not be sorry for the damned; it will cause no uneasiness or    dissatisfaction to them; but on the contrary, when they have this sight,    it will excite them to joyful praises.-These two things are evidences of    it:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; 1. That the seeing of the wrath of God executed upon the damned, should    cause grief in the saints in glory, is inconsistent with that state of    perfect happiness in which they are. There can no such thing as grief    enter, to be an alloy to the happiness and joy of that world of    blessedness. Grief is an utter stranger in that world. God hath promised    that he will wipe away all tears from their eyes, and there shall he no    more sorrow. Rev. 20:4, and chap. 7:17.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; 2. The saints in heaven possess all things as their own, and therefore    all things contribute to their joy and happiness. The Scriptures teach    that the saints in glory inherit all things. This God said in John's    hearing, when he had the vision of the New Jerusalem, Rev. 21:7. And the    Scriptures teach us to understand this absolutely of all the works of    creation and providence. 1, Cor. 3:21, 22, "All things are yours,    whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or    things present, or things to come; all are yours. Here the apostle    teaches, that all things in the world to come, or in the future and    eternal world, are the saints; not only life, but death; men, and    angels, and devils, heaven and hell, are theirs, to contribute to their    joy and happiness. Therefore the damned and their misery, their    sufferings and the wrath of God poured out upon them, will be an    occasion of joy to them. If there were any thing whatsoever that did not    contribute to their joy, but caused grief, then there would be something    which would not be theirs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; That the torments of the damned are no matter of grief, but of joy, to    the inhabitants of heaven, is very clearly expressed in several passages    of this book of Revelation; particularly by chap. 16:57, and chap. 19 at    the beginning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; SECTION II.&lt;br /&gt; (Why the sufferings of the wicked will not be cause of grief to the    righteous, but the contrary.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; 1. Negatively; it will not be because the saints in heaven are the    subjects of any ill disposition; but on the contrary, this rejoicing of    theirs will be the fruit of an amiable and excellent disposition: it    will be the fruit of a perfect holiness and conformity to Christ, the    holy Lamb of God. The devil delights in the misery of men from cruelty,    and from envy and revenge, and because he delights in misery, for its    own sake, from a malicious disposition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; It will be from exceedingly different principles, and for quite other    reasons, that the just damnation of the wicked will be an occasion of    rejoicing to the saints in glory. It will not be because they delight in    seeing the misery of others absolutely considered. The damned suffering    divine vengeance will be no occasion of joy to the saints merely as it    is the misery of others, or because it is pleasant to them to behold the    misery of others merely for its own sake. The rejoicing of the saints on    this occasion is no argument, that they are not of a most amiable and    excellent spirit, or that there is any defect on that account, that    there is any thing wanting, which would render them of a more amiable    disposition. It is no argument that they have not a spirit of goodness    and love reigning in them in absolute perfection, or that herein they do    not excel the greatest instances of it on earth, as much as the stars    are higher than the earth, or the sun brighter than a glowworm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; And whereas the heavenly inhabitants are in the text called upon to    rejoice over Babylon, because God had avenged them on her; it is not to    be understood that they are to rejoice in having their revenge glutted,    but to rejoice, in seeing the justice of God executed, and in seeing his    love to them in executing it on his enemies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; 2. Positively; the sufferings of the damned will be no occasion of grief    to the heavenly inhabitants, as they will have no love nor pity to the    damned as such. It will be no argument of want of a spirit of love in    them, that they do not love the damned; for the heavenly inhabitants    will know that it is not fit that they should love them, because they    will know then, that God has no love to them, nor pity for them; but    that they are the objects of God's eternal hatred. And they will then be    perfectly conformed to God in their wills and affections. They will love    what God loves, and that only. However the saints in heaven may have    loved the damned while here, especially those of them who were near and    dear to them in this world, they will have no love to them hereafter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; It will be an occasion of their rejoicing, as the glory of God will    appear in it. The glory of God appears in all his works: and therefore    there is no work of God which the saints in glory shall behold and    contemplate but what will be an occasion of rejoicing to them. God    glorifies himself in the eternal damnation of the ungodly men. God    glorifies himself in all that he doth; but he glorifies himself    principally in, his eternal disposal of his intelligent creatures, some    are appointed to everlasting life, and others left to everlasting death.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; The saints in heaven will be perfect in their love to God: their hearts    will be all a flame of love to God, and therefore they will greatly    value the glory of God, and will exceedingly delight in seeing him    glorified. The saints highly value the glory of God here in this, but    how much more will they so do in the world to come They will therefore    greatly rejoice in all that contributes to that glory. The glory of God    will in their esteem be of greater consequence, than the welfare of    thousands and millions of souls.-Particularly,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; (1.) They will rejoice in seeing the justice of God glorified in the    sufferings of the damned. The misery of the damned, dreadful as it is,    is but what justice requires. They in heaven will see and know it much    more clearly, than any of us do here. They will see how perfectly just    and righteous their punishment is, and therefore how properly inflicted    by the supreme Governor of the world. They will greatly rejoice to see    justice take place, to see that all the sin and wickedness that have    been committed in the world is remembered of God, and has its due    punishment. The sight of this strict and immutable justice of God will    render him amiable and adorable in their eyes. They will rejoice when    they see him who is their Father and eternal portion so glorious in his    justice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Then there will be no remaining difficulties about the justice of God,    about the absolute decrees of God, or any thing pertaining to the    dispensations of God towards men. But divine justice in the destruction    of the wicked will then appear as light without darkness, and will shine    as the sun without clouds, and on this account will they sing joyful    songs of praise to God, as we see the saints and angels do, when God    pours the vials of his wrath upon antichrist; Rev. 16:57 They sing    joyfully to God on this account, that true and righteous are his    judgments, Rev. 19:16. They seeing God so strictly just will make them    value his love the more. Mercy and grace are more valuable on this    account. The more they shall see of the justice of God the more will    they prize and rejoice in his love.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; (2.) They will rejoice in it, as it will be a glorious manifestation of    the power and majesty of God. God will show his own greatness in    executing vengeance on ungodly men. This is mentioned as one end of the    destruction the ungodly: "What if God, willing to show his wrath, and    make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of    wrath fitted to destruction ?" God will hereby show how much he is above    his enemies. There are many now in the world, who proudly lift up    themselves against God. There are many open opposers of the cause and    interest of Christ. "They set their mouth against the heavens, and their    tongue walketh through the earth." Then God will show his glorious power    in destroying these enemies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; The power of God is sometimes spoken of as very glorious, as appearing    in the temporal destruction of his enemies: Exod. 15:6, "Thy right hand,    O Lord, is become glorious in power; thy right hand, O Lord, hath dashed    in pieces the enemy." But how much more glorious will it appear in his    triumphing over, and dashing in pieces at once, all his enemies, wicked    men and devils together, all his haughty foes! The power of God will    gloriously appear in dashing to pieces his enemies as a potter's vessel.    Moses rejoiced and sang when he saw God glorify his power in the    destruction of Pharaoh and his host at the Red Sea. But how much more    will the saints in glory rejoice when they shall see God gloriously    triumphing over all his enemies in their eternal ruin! Then it will    appear how dreadful God is, and how dreadful a thing it is to disobey    and condemn him. It is often mentioned as a part of the glory of God,    that he is a terrible God. To see the majesty, and greatness, and    terribleness of God, appearing in the destruction of his enemies, will    cause the saints to rejoice; and when they shall see how great and    terrible a being God is, how will they prize his favor! How will they    rejoice that they are the objects of his love! How will they praise him    the more joyfully, that he should choose them to be his children, and to    live in the enjoyment of him!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; It will occasion rejoicing in them, as they will have the greater sense    their own happiness, by seeing the contrary misery. It is the nature of    pleasure and pain, of happiness and misery, greatly to heighten the    sense of each other. Thus the seeing of the happiness of others tends to    make men more sensible of their own calamities; and the seeing of the    calamities of others tends to heighten the sense of our own enjoyments.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; When the saints in glory, therefore, shall see the doleful state of the    damned, how will this heighten their sense of the blessedness of their    own state, so exceedingly different from it! When they shall see how    miserable others of their fellowcreatures are, who were naturally in the    same circumstances with themselves; when they shall see the smoke of    their torment, and the raging of the flames of their burning, and hear    their dolorous shrieks and cries, and consider that they in the mean    time are in the most blissful state, and shall surely be in it to all    eternity ; how will they rejoice!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; This will give them a joyful sense of the grace and love of God to them;    because hereby they will see how great a benefit they have by it. When    they, shall see the dreadful miseries of the damned, and consider that    they deserved, the same misery, and that it was sovereign grace, and    nothing else, which made them so much to differ from the damned, that,    if it had not been for that, they would have been in the same condition;    but that God from all eternity was pleased to set his love upon them,    that Christ hath laid down his life for them, and hath made them thus    gloriously happy forever, O how will they admire that dying love of    Christ, which has redeemed them from so great a misery, and purchased    for them so great happiness, and has so distinguished them from others    of their fellowcreatures! How joyfully will they sing to God and the    Lamb, when they behold this!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; SECTION III.&lt;br /&gt; An objection answered.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; The objection is, "If we are apprehensive of the damnation of others    now, it in no wise becomes us to rejoice at it, but to lament it. If we    see others in imminent danger of going to hell, it is accounted a very    sorrowful thing, and it is looked upon as an argument of a senseless and    wicked spirit, to look upon it otherwise. When it is a very dead time    with respect to religion, and a very degenerate and corrupt time among a    people, it is accounted a thing greatly to be lamented; and on this    account, that at such times there are but few converted and saved, and    many perish. Paul tells us, that he had great heaviness and continual    sorrow in his heart, because so many of the Jews were in a perishing    state: Rom. 9:1, 2, 3, "I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my    conscience so bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost, that I have great    heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart. For I could wish that myself    were accursed from Christ, for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the    flesh." And if a neighbor die, and his death be attended with    circumstances which look darkly as to the state of his soul, we account    it a sorrowful thing, because he has left us no more comfortable grounds    to hope for his salvation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Why is it not then an unbecoming thing in the saints in glory to rejoice    when they see the damnation of the ungodly ?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Ans. 1. It is now our duty to love all men, though they are wicked; but    it will not be a duty to love wicked men hereafter. Christ, by many    precepts in his word, hath made it our duty to love all men. We are    commanded to love wicked men, and our enemies and persecutors. But this    command doth not extend to the saints in glory, with respect to the    damned in hell. Nor is there the same reason that it should. We ought    now to love all, and even wicked men; we know not but that God loves    them. However wicked any man is, yet we know not but that he is one whom    God loved from eternity, we know not but that Christ loved him with a    dying love, had his name upon his heart before the world was, and had    respect to him when he endured those bitter agonies on the cross. We    know not but that he is to be our companion in glory to all eternity.&lt;br /&gt; But this is not the case in another world. The saints in glory will    know, concerning the damned in hell, that God never loved them, but that    he hates them, and will be forever hated of God. This hatred of God will    be fully declared to them; they will see it, and will see the fruits of    it in their misery. Therefore, when God has thus declared his hatred of    the damned, and the saints see it, it will be no way becoming in the    saints to love them, nor to mourn over them. It becomes the saints fully    and perfectly to consent to what God doth, without any reluctance or    opposition of spirit; yea, it becomes them to rejoice in every thing    that God sees meet to be done.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Ans 2. We ought now to seek and be concerned for the salvation of wicked    men, because now they are capable subjects of it. Wicked men, though    they may be very wicked, yet are capable subjects of mercy. It is yet a    day of grace with them, and they have the offers of salvation. Christ is    as yet seeking their salvation; he is calling upon them, inviting and    wooing them, he stands at the door and knocks. He is using many means    with them, is calling them, saying, Turn ye, turn ye, why will ye die?    The day of his patience is yet continued to them; and if Christ is    seeking their salvation, surely we ought to seek it.&lt;br /&gt; God is wont now to make men the means of one another's salvation; yea,    it is his ordinary way so to do. He makes the concern and endeavors of    his people the means of bringing home many to Christ. Therefore they    ought to be concerned for and endeavor it. But it will not be so in    another world; there wicked men will be no longer capable subjects of    mercy. The saints will know, that it is the will of God the wicked    should he miserable to all eternity. It will therefore cease to be their    duty any more to seek their salvation, or to concerned about their    misery. On the other hand, it will be their duty to rejoice in the will    and glory of God. It is not our duty to be sorry that God hath executed    just vengeance on the devils, concerning whom the will of God in their    eternal state is already known to us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Ans. 3. Rejoicing at the calamities of others now, rests not on the same    grounds as that of the saints in glory. The evil of rejoicing at others'    calamity now, consists in our envy, or revenge, or some such disposition    is gratified therein: and not that God is glorified, that the majesty    and justice of God gloriously shine forth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Ans. 4. The different circumstances of our nature now, from what will be    hereafter, make that a virtue now which will be no virtue then. For    instance, if a man be of a virtuous disposition, the circumstances of    our nature now are such, that it will necessarily, show itself by    natural affection, and to be without natural affection is a very vicious    disposition; and is so mentioned in Rom. i. 31. But natural affection is    no virtue in the saints in glory. Their virtue will exercise itself in a    higher manner.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Ans. 5. The vengeance inflicted on many of the wicked will be a    manifestation of God's love to the saints. One way whereby God shows his    love to the saints, is by destroying their enemies. God hath said, "He    that toucheth you, toucheth the apple of mine eye." And it is often    mentioned in Scripture, as instance of the great love of God to his    people, that his wrath is so awakened, when they are wronged and    injured. Thus Christ hath promised that God will avenge his own elect,    Luke 18:. 7, and hath said, that "if any man offend one of his little    ones, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his    neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea," Matt. 18:6.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; So the saints in glory will see the great love of God to them, in the    dreadful vengeance which he shall inflict on those who have injured and    persecuted them; and the view of this love of God to them will be just    cause of their rejoicing. Thus, in the text, heaven and the holy    apostles and prophets are called to rejoice over their enemies, because    God hath avenged them of them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; SECTION IV.&lt;br /&gt; The ungodly warned.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; I shall apply this subject only in one use, viz., of warning to ungodly    men. And in order to this, I desire such to consider,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; 1. How destitute of any comforting consideration your condition will be,    if you perish at last. You will have none to pity you. Look which way    you will, before or behind, on the right hand or left, look up to    heaven, or look about you in hell, and you will see none to condole your    case, or to exercise any pity towards you, in your dreadful condition.    You must bear these flames, you must bear that torment and amazement,    day and night, forever, and never have the comfort of considering, that    there is so much as one that pities your case; there never will one tear    be dropped for you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; (1.) You have now been taught that you will have no pity from the    created inhabitants of heaven. If you shall look to them, you will see    them all rejoicing at the sight of the glory of God's justice, power,    and terrible majesty, manifested in your torment. You will see them in a    blissful and glorious state: you will see Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and    all the prophets, in the kingdom of God; you will see many come from the    east, and from the west, and from the north, and from the south, and sit    down in that glorious kingdom; and, will see them all with one voice,    and with united joy, praising God for glorifying himself in your    destruction. You will wail and gnash your teeth under your own torments,    and with envy of their happiness; but they will rejoice and sing: Isa.    65:13, 14, "Therefore thus saith the Lord, Behold, my servants shall    eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but ye    shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be    ashamed: behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall    cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; (2.) God will exercise no pity towards you. If you might have his pity    in any degree, that would be of more worth to you than thousands of    worlds. That would make your case to be not without comfort and hope.    But God will exercise no pity towards you. He hath often said concerning    wicked men, that his eye shall not spare, neither will he have pity,    Ezek. 5:11, and 7:4, 9, and 8:18. He will cast upon you, and not spare;    you will see nothing in God, and receive nothing from him, but perfect    hatred, and the fierceness of his wrath; nothing but the mighty falls or    outpourings of wrath upon you every moment; and no cries will avail to    move God to any pity, or in the least to move him to lighten his hand,    or assuage the fierceness and abate the power of your torments.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Jesus Christ, the Redeemer, will have no pity on you. Though he had so    much love to sinners, as to be willing to lay down his life for them,    and offers you the benefits of his blood, while you are in this world,    and often calls upon you to accept them; yet then he will have no pity    upon you. You never will hear any more instructions from him; he will    utterly refuse to be your instructor: on the contrary, he will be your    judge, to pronounce sentence against you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; 3. You will find none that will pity you in hell. The devils will not    pity you, but will be your tormentors, as roaring lions or hellhounds to    tear you in pieces continually. And other wicked men who shall be there    will be like devils; they will have no pity on you, but will hate, and    curse, and torment you. And you yourselves will be like devils; you will    be like devils to yourselves, and will be your own tormentors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; 2. Consider what an aggravation what you have heard under this doctrine    will be to your misery. Consider how it will be at the day of judgment,    when you shall see Christ coming in the clouds of heaven, when you shall    begin to wail and cry, as knowing that you are those who are to be    condemned; and perhaps you will be ready to fly to some of your godly    friends; but you will obtain no help from them: you will see them    unconcerned for you, with joyful countenances ascending to meet the    Lord, and not the less joyful for the horror in which they see you. And    when you shall stand before the tribunal at the left hand, among devils,    trembling and astonished, and shall have the dreadful sentence passed    upon you, you will at the same time see the blessed company of saints    and angels at the right hand rejoicing, and shall hear them shout forth    the praises of God, while they hear your sentence pronounced. You will    then see those godly people, with whom you shall have been acquainted,    and who shall have been your neighbors, and with whom you now often    converse, rejoicing at the pronunciation and execution of your sentence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Perhaps there are now some godly people, to whom you are near and dear,    who are tenderly concerned for you, are ready to pity you under all    calamities, and willing to help you; and particularly are tenderly    concerned for your poor soul, and have put up many fervent prayers for    you. How will you bear to hear these singing for joy of heart, while you    are crying for sorrow of heart and howling for vexation of spirit, and    even singing the more joyful for the glorious justice of God which they    behold in your eternal condemnation!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; You that have godly parents, who in this world have tenderly loved you,    who were wont to look upon your welfare as their own, and were wont to    be grieved for you when any thing calamitous befell you in this world,    and especially were greatly concerned for the good of your souls,    industriously sought, and earnestly prayed for their salvation; how will    you bear to see them in the kingdom of God, crowned with glory? Or how    will you bear to see them receiving the blessed sentence, and going up    with shouts and songs, to enter with Christ into the kingdom prepared    for them from the foundation of the world, while you are amongst a    company of devils, and are turned away with the most bitter cries, to    enter into everlasting burnings, prepared for the devil and his angels?    How will you bear to see your parents, who in this life had so dear an    affection for you, now without any love to you, approving the sentence    of condemnation, when Christ shall with indignation bid you depart,    wretched, cursed creatures, into eternal burnings ? How will you bear to    see and hear them praising the Judge, for his justice exercised in    pronouncing this sentence, and hearing it with holy joy in their    countenances, and shouting forth the praises and hallelujahs of God and    Christ on that account?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; When they shall see what manifestations of amazement there will be in    you, at the hearing of this dreadful sentence, and that every syllable    of it pierces you like a thunderbolt, and sinks you into the lowest    depths of horror and despair; when they shall behold you with a    frightened, amazed countenance, trembling and astonished, and shall hear    you groan and gnash your teeth; these things will not move them at all    to pity you, but you will see them with a holy joyfulness in their    countenances, and with songs in their mouths. When they shall see you    turned away and beginning to enter into the great furnace, and shall see    how you shrink at it, and hear how you shriek and cry out; yet they will    not be at all grieved for you, but at the same time you will hear from    them renewed praises and hallelujahs for the true and righteous    judgments of God, in so dealing with you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Then you will doubtless remember how those your glorified parents seemed    to be concerned for your salvation, while you were here in this world;    you will remember how they were wont to counsel and warn you, and how    little you regarded their counsels, and how they seemed to be concerned    and grieved, that there appeared no more effect of their endeavors for    the good of your souls. You will then see them praising God for    executing just vengeance on you, for setting so light by their counsels    and reproofs. However here they loved you, and were concerned for you,    now they will rise up in judgment against you, and will declare how your    sins are aggravated by the endeavors which they to no purpose used with    you, to bring you to forsake sin and practice virtue, and to seek and    serve God; but you were obstinate under all, and would not hearken to    them. They will declare how inexcusable you are upon this account. And    the Judge shall execute the more terrible wrath upon you on this    account, that you have made no better improvement of your parents'    instructions, they will joyfully praise God for it. After they shall    have seen you lie in hell thousands of years, and your torment shall yet    continue without any rest, day or night; they will not begin to pity you    then; they will praise God, that his justice appears in the eternity of    your misery.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; You that have godly husbands, or wives, or brethren, or sisters, with    whom you have been wont to dwell under the same roof, and to eat at the    same table, consider how it will be with you, when you shall come to    part with them, when they shall be taken and you left: Luke 17:34, 35,    36, "I tell you, in that night, there shall be two men in one bed; the    one shall be taken and the other left. Two women shall be grinding    together the one shall be taken and the other left. Two men shall be in    the field; the one shall be taken and the other left." However you may    wail and lament, when you see them parted from you, they being taken and    you left, you will see in them no signs of sorrow, that you are not    taken with them; that you ascend not with them to meet the Lord in the    air, but are left below to be consumed with the world, which is reserved    unto fire, against the day of the perdition of ungodly men.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Those wicked men, who shall go to hell from under the labors of pious    and faithful ministers, will see those ministers rejoicing and praising    God upon the occasion of their destruction. Consider, ye that have long    lived under Mr. Stoddard's ministry, and are yet in a natural condition,    how dreadful it will be to you to see him who was so tenderly concerned    for the good of your souls while he was here, and so earnestly sought    your salvation, to see him rising up in judgment against you, declaring    your inexcusableness, declaring how often he warned you; how plainly he    set your danger before you, and told you of the opportunity that you    had; how fully he set forth the miserable condition in which you were,    and the necessity there was that you should obtain an interest in    Christ; how movingly and earnestly he exhorted you to get into a better    state, and how regardless you were; how little you minded all that he    said to you; how you went on still in your trespasses, hardened your    necks, and made your hearts as an adamant, and refused to return! How    dreadful will it be to you to hear him declaring how inexcusable you are    upon these accounts! How will you be cut to the heart, when you shall    see him approving the sentence of condemnation, which the Judge shall    pronounce against you, and judging and sentencing you with Christ, as an    assessor in judgment; for the saints shall judge the world (1 Cor. 6:2);    and when you shall see him rejoicing in the execution of justice upon    you for all your unprofitableness under his ministry!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; 3. Consider what a happy opportunity you have in your hands now. Now    your case is very different from the case of wicked men in another    world, of which you have now heard; and particularly in the following    respects.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; (1.) God makes it the duty of all the godly now to be concerned for your    salvation. As to those who are damned in hell, the saints in glory are    not concerned for their welfare, and have no love nor pity towards them;    and if you perish hereafter, it will be an occasion of joy to all the    godly. But now God makes it the duty of all the godly, to love you with    a sincere good-will and earnest affection. God doth not excuse men from    loving you, nor your ill qualities: though you are wicked and    undeserving, yet God makes it the duty of all sincerely to wish well to    you; and it is a heinous sin in the sight of God for any to hate you. He    requires all to be concerned for your salvation, and by all means to    seek it. It is their duty now to lament your danger, and to pray for    mercy to you, that you may be converted and brought home to Christ.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Now the godly who know you, desire your salvation, and are ready to    seek, and pray for it. If you be now in distress about the condition of    your souls, you are not in such a forsaken, helpless condition, as those    that are damned; but you may find many to pray for you, many who are    willing to assist you by their advice and counsels, and all with a    tender concern, and with hearty wishes that your souls may prosper. Now    some of you have godly friends who are near and dear to you; you are    beloved of those who have a great interest in heaven, and who have power    with God by their prayer's: you have the blessing of living under the    same roof with them. Some of you have godly parents to pray for you, and    to counsel and instruct you, who you may be sure will do it with sincere    love and concern for you. And there is not only the command of God, God    hath not only made it the duty of others to seek your salvation, but    hath given encouragement to others to seek it. He gives encouragement    that they may obtain help for you by their prayers, and that they may be    instrumental of your spiritual good. God reveals it to be his manner, to    make our sincere endeavors a mean of each other's good. How different is    the case with you from what it is with those that are already damned!    And how happy an opportunity have you in your hands, if you would but    improve it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; (2.) Now you live where there is a certain order of men appointed to    make it the business of their lives to seek your salvation. Now you have    ministers, not to rise up in judgment against you; but in Christ's    stead, to beseech you to be reconciled to God, 2 Cor. 5:20. God hath not    only made it the duty of all to wish well to your souls, and    occasionally to endeavor to promote your spiritual interests, but he    hath set apart certain persons, to make it their whole work, in which    they should spend their days and their strength.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; (3.) Christ himself is now seeking your salvation. He seeks it by the    forementioned means, by appointing men to make it their business to seek    it; he seeks it by them; they are his instruments, and they beseech you    in Christ's stead, to be reconciled to God. He seeks it in commanding    our neighbors to seek it. Christ is represented in Scripture, as wooing    the souls of sinner's. He uses means to persuade them to choose and    accept of their own salvation. He often invites them to come to him that    they may have life, that they may find rest to their souls; to come and    take of the water of life freely. He stands at the door and knocks; and    ceases not, although sinners for a long time refuse him. He bears    repeated repulses from them, and yet mercifully continues knocking,    Saying, "Open to me, that I may come in and sup with you, and you with    me." At the doors of many sinners he stands thus knocking for many years    together. Christ is become a most importunate suitor to sinners, that he    may become their sovereign. He is often setting before them the need    they have of him, the miserable condition in which they are, and the    great provision that is made for the good of their souls and he invites    them to accept of this provision, and promises it shall be theirs upon    their mere acceptance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Thus how earnestly did Christ seek the salvation of Jerusalem, and he    wept over it when they refused: Luke 19:41, 42, "And when he was come    near, he beheld the city, and wept over it, saying, If thou hadst known,    even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy    peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes." And Matt. 23:37, "0    Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them    that are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children    together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye    would not!" Thus Christ is now seeking your salvation; such an    opportunity have you now in your hands. Consider therefore how many    means Christ is using with you, to bring you to salvation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Besides those things which have been now mentioned, some of you have a    degree of the inward strivings and influences of the Spirit, which makes    your opportunity much greater. You have Christ's internal calls and    knockings. All the persons of the Trinity are now seeking your    salvation. God the Father hath sent his Son, who hath made way for your    salvation, and removed all difficulties, except those which are with    your own heart. And he is waiting to be gracious to you; the door of his    mercy stands open to you; he hath set a fountain open for you to wash in    from sin and uncleanness. Christ is calling, inviting, and wooing you;    and the Holy Ghost is striving with you by his internal motions and    influences.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; 4. If you now repent, before it be too late, the saints and angels in    glory will rejoice at your repentance. If you repent not till it is too    late, they will, as you have heard, rejoice in seeing justice executed    upon you. But if you now repent, they will rejoice at your welfare, that    you who were lost, are found; that you who were dead, are alive again.    They will rejoice that you are come to so happy a state already, and    that you are in due time to inherit eternal happiness, Luke 15:10. So    that if now you will improve your opportunity, there will be a very    different occasion of joy in heaven concerning you, than that of which    the doctrine speaks; not a rejoicing on occasion of your misery, but on    occasion of your unspeakable blessedness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; 5. If you repent before it is too late, you yourselves shall be of that    joyful company. They will be so far from rejoicing on occasion of your    ruin, that you yourselves will be of that glorious company, who will    rejoice in all the works of God, who will have all tears wiped away from    their eyes, to whom there will be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying,    and from whom sorrow and sighing shall flee away. You yourselves will be    of those who will rejoice at the glorious display of God's majesty and    justice in his wrath on his enemies. You will be of those that shall    sing for joy of heart at the day of judgment, while others mourn for    sorrow of heart, and bowl for vexation of spirit; and you will enter    into the joy of your Lord, and there shall never be any end or abatement    of our joy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5196052296126723727-8875944457902994326?l=johntimothyvian.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/feeds/8875944457902994326/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5196052296126723727&amp;postID=8875944457902994326' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/8875944457902994326'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/8875944457902994326'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/2010/12/end-of-wicked.html' title='The End of the Wicked'/><author><name>John T.

In the first chapter he had shown that the Gentiles were under sin. In this he shows that the Jews also are under sin, and that however severe they were in their censures upon the Gentiles, yet they themselves did the same things, for which the apostle very much blames them. “Therefore, thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest, for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest, doest the same things.” And he warns them not to go on in such a way, by forewarning them of the misery to which they will expose themselves by it, and by giving them to understand, that instead of their misery being less than that of the Gentiles, it would be the greater, for God’s distinguishing goodness to them above the Gentiles. The Jews thought that they should be exempted from future wrath because God had chosen them to be his peculiar people. But the apostle informs them that there should be indignation and wrath, tribulation and anguish, to every soul of man, not only to the Gentiles, but to every soul and to the Jews first and chiefly, when they did evil, because their sins were more aggravated.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;In the text we find,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;I. A description of wicked men, in which may be observed those qualifications of wicked men which have the nature of a cause, and those which have the nature of an effect.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Those qualifications of wicked men here mentioned that have the nature of a cause, are their being contentious, and not obeying the truth, but obeying unrighteousness. By their being contentious, is meant their being contentious against the truth, their quarreling with the gospel, their finding fault with its declarations and offers. Unbelievers find many things in the ways of God at which they stumble, and by which they are offended. They are always quarreling and finding fault with one thing or another, whereby they are kept from believing the truth and yielding to it. Christ is to them a stone of stumbling, and rock of offense. They do not obey the truth, that is, they do not yield to it, they do not receive it with faith. That yielding to the truth and embracing it, which there is in saving faith, is called obeying, in Scripture. Rom. 6:17, “But God be thanked that ye were the servants of sin; but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.” Heb. 5:9, “And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him.” Rom. 1:5, “By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations for his name.” But they obey unrighteousness instead of yielding to the gospel, they are under the power and dominion of sin, and are slaves to their lusts and corruptions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;It is in those qualifications of wicked men that their wickedness radically consists. Their unbelief and opposition to the truth, and their slavish subjection to lust, are the foundation of all wickedness.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Those qualifications of wicked men, which have the nature of an effect, are their doing evil. This is the least of their opposition against the gospel, and of their slavish subjection to their lusts, that they do evil. Those wicked principles are the foundation, and their wicked practice is the superstructure. Those were the root, and this is the fruit.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;II. The punishment of wicked men, in which may be also noticed the cause and the effect.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Those things mentioned in their punishment that have the nature of a cause, are indignation and wrath; i.e. the indignation and wrath of God. It is the anger of God that will render wicked men miserable. They will be the subjects of divine wrath, and hence will arise their whole punishment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Those things in their punishment that have the nature of an effect, are tribulation and anguish. Indignation and wrath in God, will work extreme sorrow, trouble, and anguish of heart, in them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Doctrine. Indignation, wrath, misery, and anguish of soul, are the portion that God has allotted to wicked men.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Everyone of mankind must have the portion that belongs to him. God allots to each one his portion. And the portion of the wicked is nothing but wrath, and distress, and anguish of soul. Though they may enjoy a few empty and vain pleasures and delights, for a few days while they stay in this world, yet that which is allotted to them by the Possessor and Governor of all things to be their portion, is only indignation and wrath, tribulation and anguish. This is not the portion that wicked men choose. The portion that they choose is worldly happiness, yet it is the portion that God carves out for them. It is the portion that they in effect choose for themselves. For they choose those things that naturally and necessarily lead to it, and those that they are plainly told, times without number, will issue in it. Pro. 8:36, “But he that sinneth against me, wrongeth his own soul; all they that hate me love death.” But whether they choose it or not, this will and must be the portion to all eternity of all who live and die wicked men. Indignation and wrath shall pursue them as long as they live in this world, shall drive them out of the world, and shall follow them into another world. And there wrath and misery shall abide upon them throughout eternity.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;The method that I shall take in treating this subject, is to describe the wrath and misery of which wicked men shall be the subjects, both here and hereafter, in the successive parts and periods of it, according to the order of time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;I. I shall describe the wrath that often pursues wicked men in this life. Indignation and wrath often being with them here.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;First, God oftentimes in wrath leaves them to themselves. They are left in their sins, and left to undo themselves, and work out their own ruin. He lets them alone in sin. Hos. 4:17, “Ephraim is joined to his idols; let him alone.” He often leaves them to go great lengths in sin, and does not afford them that restraining grace that he does to others. He leaves them to their own blindness, so that they always remain ignorant of God and Christ, and of the things that belong to their peace. They are sometimes left to hardness of heart, to be stupid and senseless, so that nothing will ever thoroughly awaken them. They are left to their own hearts’ lusts, to continue in some wicked practices all their days. Some are left to their covetousness, some to drunkenness, some to uncleanness, some to a proud, contentious, and envious spirit, and some to a spirit of finding fault and quarreling with God. God leaves them to their folly, to act exceedingly foolishly, to delay and put off the concerns of their souls from time to time, never to think the present time the best, but always to keep it at a distance, and foolishly to continue flattering themselves with hopes of long life, and to put far away the evil day, and to bless themselves in their hearts, and say, “I shall have peace, though I add drunkenness to thirst.” Some are so left that they are miserably hardened and senseless, when others all around them are awakened, and greatly concerned, and inquire what they shall do to be saved.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Sometimes God leaves men to a fatal backsliding for a misimprovement of the strivings of his Spirit. They are let alone, to backslide perpetually. Dreadful is the life and condition of those who are thus left of God. We have instances of the misery of such in God’s holy word, particularly of Saul and Judas. Such are, sometimes, very much left to the power of Satan to tempt them, to hurry them on in wicked courses, and exceedingly to aggravate their own guilt and misery.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Second, indignation and wrath are sometimes exercised towards them in this world, by their being cursed in all that concerns them, They have this curse of God following them in everything. They are cursed in all their enjoyments. If they are in prosperity, it is cursed to them. If they possess riches, if they have honor, if they enjoy pleasure, there is the curse of God that attends it. Psa. 92:7, “When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they may be destroyed forever.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;There is a curse of God that attends their ordinary food. Every morsel of bread which they eat, and every drop of water which they drink. Psa. 69:22, “Let their table become a snare before them; and that which should have been for their welfare, let it become a trap.” They are cursed in all their employments, in whatsoever they put their hands to: when they go into the field to labor, or are at work at their respective trades. Deu. 28:16, “Cursed shalt thou be in the city, and cursed shalt thou be in the field.” The curse of God remains in the houses where they dwell, and brimstone is scattered in their habitations. Job 18:15. The curse of God attends them in the afflictions which they meet with, whereas the afflictions that good men meet with, are fatherly corrections, and are sent in mercy. The afflictions which wicked men meet with are in wrath, and come from God as an enemy, and are the foretaste of their everlasting punishment. The curse of God attends them also in their spiritual enjoyments and opportunities, and it would have been better for them not to have been born in a land of light. Their having the Bible and the sabbath, is only to aggravate their guilt and misery. The Word of God when preached to them is a savor of death unto death. Better would it be for them, if Christ had never come into the world, if there had never been any offer of a Savior. Life itself is a curse to them. They live only to fill up the measure of their sins. What they seek in all the enjoyments, and employments, and concerns of life is their own happiness, but they never obtain it. They never obtain any true comfort, all the comforts which they have are worthless and unsatisfying. If they lived a hundred years with never so much of the world in their possession, their life is all filled up with vanity. All that they have is vanity of vanities, they find no true rest for their souls, they do but feed on the east wind, they have no real contentment. Whatever outward pleasures they may have, their souls are starving. They have no true peace of conscience, they have nothing of the favor of God. Whatever they do, they live in vain, and to no purpose. They are useless in the creation of God, they do not answer the end of their being. They live without God, and have not the presence of God, nor any communion with him. But on the contrary, all that they have and all that they do, does but contribute to their own misery, and render their future and everlasting state the more dreadful. The best of wicked men live but miserable and wretched lives, with all their prosperity. Their lives are most undesirable, and whatever they have, the wrath of God abides upon them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Third, after a time they must die. Ecc. 9:3, “This is an evil among all things that are done under the sun, that there is one event unto all: yea, also the heart of the sons of men is full of evil, and madness is in their heart while they live, and after that they go to the dead.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Death is a far different thing when it befalls wicked men, from what it is when it befalls good men. To the wicked it is in execution of the curse of the law, and of the wrath of God. When a wicked man dies, God cuts him off in wrath, he is taken away as by a tempest of wrath, he is driven away in his wickedness. Pro. 14:32, “The wicked is driven away in his wickedness: but the righteous hath hope in his death.” Job 18:18. “He shall be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.” Job 27:21, “The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth, and as a storm, hurleth him out of his place.” Though wicked men, while they live, may live in worldly prosperity, yet they cannot live here always, but they must die. The place that knoweth him shall know him no more, and the eye that hath seen him shall see him no more in the land of the living.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Their bounds are unchangeably set, and when they are come to those bounds they must go, and must leave all their worldly good things. If they have lived in outward glory their glory shall not descend after them. They get nothing while they live that they can carry away. Ecc. 5:15, “As he came forth of his mother’s womb, naked shall he return, to go as he came, and shall take nothing of his labor, which he may carry away in his hand.” He must leave all his substance unto others. It they are at ease and quietness, death will put an end to their quietness, will spoil all their carnal mirth, and will strip them of all their glory. As they came naked into the world, so naked must they return, and go as they came. If they have laid up much goods for many years, if they have laid in stores, as they hope, for great comfort and pleasure, death will cut them off from all. Luke 12:16-20, “And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully: and he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits? and he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods. And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years: take thine ease, eat, drink and be merry. But God said unto him, Thou fool! this night thy soul shall be required of thee; then whose shall those things be which thou hast provided.” If they have many designs and projects in their breasts for promoting their outward prosperity and worldly advantage, when death comes, it cuts all off at one blow. Psa. 146:4, “His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.” And so whatever diligence they have had in seeking their salvation, death will disappoint all such diligence, it will not wait for them to accomplish their designs and fulfill their schemes. If they have pleased, and pampered, and adorned their bodies, death will spoil all their pleasure and their glory. It will change their countenances to a pale and ghastly aspect. Instead of their gay apparel and beautiful ornaments, they shall have only a winding-sheet. Their house must be the dark and silent grave; and that body which they deified, shall turn to loathsome rottenness, shall be eaten of worms, and turn to dust. Some wicked men die in youth, wrath pursues them, and soon overtakes them. They are not suffered to live out half their days. Job 36:14, “They die in youth, and their life is among the unclean.” Psa. 55:23, “But thou, O God, shall bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days.” They are sometimes overtaken in the very midst of their sin and vanity, and death puts a sudden end to all their youthful pleasures. They are often stopped in the midst of a career in sin, and then if their hearts cleave ever so fast to those things, they must be rent from them. They have no other good but outward good, but then they must eternally forsake it. They must close their eyes forever on all that has been dear and pleasant to them here.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Fourth, wicked men are oftentimes the subjects of much tribulation and anguish of heart on their death-beds. Sometimes the pains of body are very extreme and dreadful, and what they endure in those agonies and struggles for life, after they are past speaking, and when body and soul are rending asunder, none can know. Hezekiah had an awful sense of it. He compares it to a lion’s breaking all his bones. Isa. 38:12, 13, “Mine age is departed, and is removed from me as a shepherd’s tent: I have cut off as a weaver my life; he will cut me off with pining sickness: from day even to night wilt thou make an end of me. I reckoned till morning, that, as a lion, so will he break all my bones: from day even to night wilt thou make an end of me.” But this is but little to what is sometimes undergone by wicked men in their souls when they are on their death-beds. Death appears sometimes with an exceedingly terrible aspect to them. When it comes and stares them in the face, they cannot bear to behold it. It is always so, if the wicked men have notice of the approach of death, and have reason and conscience in exercise, and are not either stupid or distracted. When this king of terrors comes to show himself to them, and they are called forth to meet him, O how do they dread the conflict! But meet him they must. “There is no man that hath power over the spirit to retain the spirit; neither hath he power in the day of death: and there is no discharge in that war; neither shall wickedness deliver those that are given to it.” Death comes to them with all his dreadful armor, and his sting not taken away. And it is enough to fill their souls with torment that cannot be expressed. It is an awful thing for a person to be lying on a sick bed, to be given over by physicians, to have friends stand weeping round the bed as expecting to part with him, and in such circumstances as those, to have no hope, to be without an interest in Christ, and to have the guilt of his sins lying on his soul, to be going out of the world without his peace being made with God, to stand before his holy judgment-seat in all his sins without anything to plead or answer, and to see the only opportunity to prepare for eternity coming immediately to an end, after which there shall be no more time of probation. But his case will be unalterably fixed, and there never will be another offer of a Savior: for the soul to come just to the very edge of the boundless gulf of eternity, and insensibly to launch forth into it, without any God or Savior to take care of it, to be brought to the edge of the precipice, and to see himself falling down into the lake of fire and brimstone, and to feel that he has no power to stop himself. Who can tell the shrinkings and misgivings of heart in such a case? How does he endeavor to hang back, but yet he must go on. It is in vain to wish for further opportunity! O how happy does he think those that stand about him, who may yet live, may have their lives continued longer, when he must go immediately into an endless eternity! How does he wish it might be with him as with those who have a longer time to prepare for their trial! But it must not be so. Death, sent on purpose to summon him, will give him no release nor respite. He must go before the holy judgment-seat of God as he is, to have his everlasting state determined according to his works. To such persons, how differently do things appear from what they did in the time of health, and when they looked at death as at a distance! How differently does sin look to them now, those sins which they used to make light of! How dreadful is it now to look back and consider how they have spent their time, how foolish they have been, how they have gratified and indulged their lusts, and lived in ways of wickedness. How careless they have been, and how they have neglected their opportunities and advantages, how they have refused to hearken to counsel, and have not repented in spite of all the warnings that were given! Pro. 5:11, 12, 13, “And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed, and say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof; and have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me!”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;How differently does the world appear to them now! They used to set much by it, and have their hearts taken up with it, but what does it avail them now? How insignificant are all their riches! Pro. 11:4, “Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death.” What different thoughts have they now of God, and of his wrath! They used to make light of the wrath of God, but how terrible does it now appear! How does their heart shrink at the thoughts of appearing before such a God! How different are their thoughts of time! Now time appears precious. O what would they not give for a little more time! Some have in such circumstances been brought to cry out, O, a thousand worlds for an hour, for a moment! And how differently does eternity now appear! Now it is awful indeed. Some have been brought on a death-bed to cry out, O that word Eternity! Eternity! Eternity! What a dismal gulf does it appear to them, when they come to the very brink! They often at such times cry for mercy, and cry in vain. God called, and they would not hear. “They set at nought his counsels, and would none of his reproofs. Now also he laughs at their calamity, and mocks when their fear cometh.” They beseech others to pray for them, they send for ministers, but all often fails them. They draw nearer and nearer to death, and eternity comes more and more immediately in view. And who can express their horror, when they feel themselves clasped in the cold arms of death, when their breath fails more and more, and their eyes begin to be fixed and grow dim! That which is then felt by them, cannot be told nor conceived. Some wicked men have much of the horror and despair of hell in their last sickness. Ecc. 5:17, “All his days also he eateth in darkness, and he hath much sorrow and wrath with his sickness.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;II. I shall describe the wrath that attends wicked men hereafter.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;First, the soul, when it is separated from the body, shall be cast down into hell. There is without doubt a particular judgment by which every man is tried at death, beside the general judgment. For the soul, as soon as it departs from the body, appears before God to be judged. Ecc. 12:7, “Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was; and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.” That is, to be judged and disposed of by him. Heb. 9:27, “It is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment.” But this particular judgment is probably no such solemn transaction as that which will be at the day of judgment. The soul must appear before God, but not in the manner that men shall appear at the end of the world. The souls of wicked men shall not go to heaven to appear before God. Neither shall Christ descend from heaven for the soul to appear before him. Neither is it to be supposed, that the soul shall be carried to any place where there is some special symbol of the divine presence, in order to be judged. But as God is everywhere present, so the soul shall be made immediately sensible of his presence. Souls in a separate state shall be sensible of the presence of God and of his operations in another manner than we now are. All separate spirits may be said to be before God. The saints are in his glorious presence, and the wicked in hell are in his dreadful presence. They are said to be tormented in the presence of the Lamb. Rev. 14:10, “The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb.” So the soul of a wicked man, at its departure from the body, will be made immediately sensible that it is before an infinitely holy and dreadful God and his own final Judge. And will then see how terrible a God he is, he will see how holy a God he is, how infinitely he hates sin. He will be sensible of the greatness of God’s anger against sin, and how dreadful is his displeasure. Then will he be sensible of the dreadful majesty and power of God, and how fearful a thing it is to fall into his hands. Then the soul shall come naked with all its guilt, and in all its filthiness, a vile, loathsome, abominable creature, an enemy to God, a rebel against him, with the guilt of all its rebellion and disregard of God’s commands, and contempt of his authority, and slight of the glorious gospel, before God as its Judge. This will fill the soul with horror and amazement. It is not to be supposed that this judgment will be attended with any voice or any such outward transactions as the judgment at the end of the world. But God shall manifest himself in his strict justice inwardly, to the immediate view of the soul, and to the sense and apprehension of the conscience. This particular judgment probably will not hinder, but that the soul shall be cast into hell immediately when it goes from the body. As soon as ever the soul departs from the body, the soul shall know what its state and condition are to be all eternity. As long as there is life, there is hope. The man, while he lived, though his case was exceedingly dreadful, yet had some hope. When he lay dying, there was a possibility of salvation. But when once the union between soul and body is broken, then that moment the case becomes desperate, and there remains no hope, no possibility. On their death-beds, perhaps, they had some hope that God would pity them and hear their cries, or that he would hear the prayers of their pious friends for them. They were ready to lay hold on something which they had at some time met with, some religious affection or some change in their external conduct, and to flatter themselves that they were then converted. They were able to indulge some degree of hope from the moral lives that they had lived, that God would have respect to them and save them, but as soon as ever the soul parts from the body, from that moment the case will be absolutely determined, there will then be an end forever to all hope, to everything that men hang upon in this life. The soul then shall know certainly that it is to be miserable to all eternity, without any remedy. It shall see that God is its enemy. It shall see its Judge clothed in his wrath and vengeance. Then its misery will begin, it will that moment be swallowed up in despair. The great gulf will be fixed between it and happiness, the door of mercy will be forever shut up, the irrevocable sentence will be passed. Then shall the wicked know what is before them. Before, the soul was in distress for fear how it would be. But now, all its fears shall come upon it. It shall come upon it as a mighty flood, and there will be no escaping. The soul was full of amazement before through fear. But now, who can conceive the amazement that fills it that moment when all hope is cut off, and it knows that there never will be any difference!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;When a good man dies, his soul is conducted by holy angels to heaven. Luke 16:22, “And it came to pass that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham’s bosom: the rich man also died and was buried.” So we may well suppose that when a wicked man dies, his soul is seized by wicked angels, that they are round his bed ready to seize the miserable soul as soon as it is parted from the body. And with what fierceness and fury do those cruel spirits fly upon their prey, and the soul shall be left in their hands. There shall be no good angels to guard and defend it. God will take no merciful care of it. There is nothing to help it against those cruel spirits that shall lay hold of it to carry it to hell, there to torment it forever. God will leave it wholly in their hands, and will give it up to their possession, when it comes to die. It shall be carried down into hell, to the abode of devils and damned spirits. If the fear of hell on a death-bed sometimes fills the wicked with amazement, how will they be overwhelmed when they feel its torments, when they shall find them not only as great but far greater than their fears! They shall find them far beyond what they could conceive of before they felt them, for none know the power of God’s anger, but they that experience it. Psa. 90:11, “Who knoweth the power of thine anger? even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Departed spirits of wicked men are doubtless carried to some particular place in the universe, which God has prepared to be the receptacle of his wicked, rebellious, and miserable subjects, a place where God’s avenging justice shall be glorified, a place built to be the prison, and where devils and wicked men are reserved till the day of judgment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Second, here the souls of wicked men shall suffer extreme and amazing misery in a separate state, until the resurrection. This misery is not indeed their full punishment, nor is the happiness of the saints before the day of judgment their full happiness. It is with the souls of wicked men as it is with devils. Though the devils suffer extreme torment now, yet they do not suffer their complete punishment, and therefore it is said, that they are cast down to hell, and bound in chains. 2 Pet. 2:4, “God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment.” Jude 6, “And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness, unto the judgment of the great day.” They are reserved in the state they are in, and for what are they reserved, but for a greater degree of punishment? And therefore they are said to tremble for fear. Jam. 2:19, “Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe and tremble.” Hence when Christ was on earth, the devils were greatly afraid that Christ was come to torment them. Mat. 8:29, “And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? Art thou come hither to torment us before the time?” Mark 5:7, “And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;But yet they are there in extreme and inconceivable misery, they are there deprived of all good, they have no rest nor comfort, and they are subject to the wrath of God. God there executes wrath on them without mercy, and they are swallowed up in wrath. Luke 16:24, “And he cried, and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me; and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.” Here we are being told that, when the rich man died, he lift up his eyes being in torment, and he tells Abraham that he is tormented in a flame. It seems that the flame was not only about him, but in him. He therefore asks for a drop of water to cool his tongue. This doubtless is to represent to us that they are full of the wrath of God as it were with fire, and they shall there be tormented in the midst of devils and damned spirits. And they shall have inexpressible torment from their own consciences. God’s wrath is the fire that never shall be quenched, and conscience is the worm that never dies. How much do men suffer from horror of conscience sometimes in this world, but how much more in hell! What bitter and tormenting reflections will they have concerning the folly they have been guilty of in their lives, in so neglecting their souls, when they had such an opportunity for repentance; that they went on so foolishly to treasure up wrath against the day of wrath, to add to the record of their sins from day to day, to make their misery yet greater and greater. How they have kindled the fires of hell for themselves, and spent their lives in gathering the fuel! They will not be able to help revolving such thoughts in their minds. And how tormenting will they be! And those who go to hell, never can escape thence. There they remain imprisoned till the day of judgment, and their torments remain continually. Those wicked men who died many years ago, their souls went to hell, and there they are still. Those who went to hell in former ages of the world, have been in hell ever since, all the while suffering torment. They have nothing else to spend their time in there, but to suffer torment, they are kept in being for no other purpose. And though they have many companions in hell, yet they are no comfort to them, for there is no friend, no love, no pity, no quietness, no prospect, no hope.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Third, the separate souls of the wicked, besides the present misery that they suffer, shall be in amazing fear of their more full punishment at the day of judgment. Though their punishment in their separate state be exceedingly dreadful, and far more than they can bear, though it be so great as to sink and crush them, yet this is not all. They are reserved for a much greater and more dreadful punishment at the day of judgment. Their torment will then be vastly augmented, and continue in that augmentation to all eternity. Their punishment will be so much greater then, that their misery in this separate state is but as an imprisonment before an execution. They, as well as the devils, are bound in chains of darkness to the judgment of the great day. Separate spirits are called “spirits in prison.” 1 Pet. 3:19, “By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison.” And if the imprisonment be so dreadful, how dreadful indeed will be the execution! When we are under any great pain of body at any time, how do we dread the least addition to it! Its continuance is greatly dreaded, much more its increase. How much more will those separate spirits that suffer the torments of hell, dread that augmentation and completing of their torment which there will be at the day of judgment, when what they feel already is vastly more than they can support themselves, when they shall be as it were begging for one drop of water to cool their tongues, and when they would give ten thousand worlds for the least abatement of their misery! How sinking will it be to think that instead of that the day is coming when God shall come forth out of heaven to sentence them to a far more dreadful degree of misery, and to continue them under it forever! What experience they have of the dreadfulness of God’s wrath convinces them fully how terrible a thing his wrath is. They will therefore be exceedingly afraid of that full wrath which he will execute at the day of judgment. They will have no hope of escaping it, they will know assuredly that it will come.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;The fear of this makes the devils, those mighty, proud, and stubborn spirits, to tremble. They believe what is threatened, and therefore tremble. If this fear overcomes them, how much more will it overwhelm the souls of wicked men! All hell trembles at the thoughts of the day of judgment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Fourth, when the day of judgment comes they shall rise to the resurrection of damnation. When that day comes, all mankind that have died from off the face of the earth shall arise; not only the righteous, but also the wicked. Dan. 12:2, “And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth, shall awake; some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.” Rev. 20:13, “And the sea gave up the dead which were in it, and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged, every man according to his works.” The damned in hell know not the time when the day of judgment will be, but when the time comes it will be made known, and it will be the most dreadful news that ever was told in that world of misery. It is always a doleful time in hell. The world of darkness is always full of shrieks and doleful cries. But when the news is heard, that the day appointed for the judgment is come, hell will be filled with louder shrieks and more dreadful cries than ever before. When Christ comes in the clouds of heaven to judgment, the news of it will fill both earth and hell with mourning and bitter crying. We read that all the kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him, and so shall all the inhabitants of hell, and then must the souls of the wicked come up to be united to their bodies, and stand before the Judge. They shall not come willingly, but shall be dragged forth as a malefactor is dragged out of his dungeon to execution. They were unwilling when they died to leave the earth to go to hell, but now they will be much more unwilling to come out of hell to go to the last judgment. It will be no deliverance to them, it will only be a coming forth to their execution. They will hang back, but must come. The devils and damned spirits must come up together. The last trumpet will then be heard, this will be the most terrible sound to wicked men and devils that ever was heard. And not only the wicked, that shall then be found dwelling on the earth, shall hear it, but also those that are in their graves. John 5:28, 29, “Marvel not at this; for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice and shall come forth; they that have done good unto the resurrection of life, and they that have done evil unto the resurrection of damnation.” And then must the souls of the wicked enter their bodies again, which will be prepared only to be organs of torment and misery. It will be a dreadful sight to them when they come to their bodies again, those bodies which were formerly used by them as the organs and instruments of sin and wickedness, and whose appetites and lusts they indulged and gratified. The parting of soul and body was dreadful to them when they died, but their meeting again at the resurrection will be more dreadful. They shall receive their bodies loathsome and hideous, agreeably to that shame and everlasting contempt to which they shall arise. As the bodies of the saints shall arise more glorious than when on earth, and shall be like unto Christ’s glorious body, so we may well suppose that the bodies of the wicked will arise proportionably more deformed and hideous. Oftentimes in this world a polluted soul is hid in a fine and comely body, but it will not be so then when things shall appear as they are. The form and aspect of the body shall appear as they are, and the form and aspect of the body shall be answerable to the hellish deformity of the soul. Thus shall they rise out of their graves, and shall lift up their eyes, and see the Son of God in the clouds of heaven, in the glory of his Father, with all his holy angels with him. Then shall they see their Judge in his awful majesty, which will be the most amazing sight to them that ever they saw, and will still add new horrors. That awful and terrible majesty in which he will appear, and the manifestation of his infinite holiness, will pierce their souls. They shall come forth out of their graves all trembling and astonished: fearfulness shall surprise them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Fifth, then must they appear before their Judge to give up their account. They will find no mountains or rocks to fall upon them, that can cover them, and hide them from the wrath of the Lamb. Many of them will see others at that time, who were formerly their acquaintance, who shall appear with glorious bodies, and with joyful countenances and songs of praise, and mounting up as with wings to meet the Lord in the air, while they are left behind. Many shall see their former neighbors and acquaintance, their companions, their brothers, and their wives taken and they left. They shall be summoned to go and appear before the judgment-seat, and go they must, however unwilling. They must stand at Christ’s left hand, in the midst of devils and wicked men. This shall again add still further amazement, and will cause their horror still to be in a further degree than ever. With what horror will that company come together! And then shall they be called to their account; then shall be brought to light the hidden things of darkness; then shall all the wickedness of their hearts be made know; then shall be declared the actual wickedness they have been guilty of; then shall appear their secret sins that they have kept hid from the eye of the world; then shall be manifested in their true light those sins that they used to plead for, and to excuse and justify. And then shall all their sins be set forth in all their dreadful aggravations, all their filthiness will be brought to light to their everlasting shame and contempt. Then it shall appear how heinous many of those things were that they in their lifetime made light of; then will it appear how dreadful their guilt is in thus ill-treating so glorious and blessed a Savior. And all the world shall see it, and many shall rise up in judgment against them and condemn them. Their companions whom they tempted to wickedness, others whom they have hardened in sin by their example, shall rise up against many of them; and the heathen that have had no advantages in comparison of them, and many of whom have yet lived better lives than they, shall rise up against them, and they shall be called to a special account. The Judge will reckon with them. They shall be speechless, they shall be struck dumb, their own consciences bearing testimony against them, and shall cry aloud against them, for they shall then see how great and terrible a God he is, against whom they have sinned. Then shall they stand at the left hand, while they see others whom they knew on earth sitting at the right hand of Christ in glory, shining forth as the sun, accepted of Christ, and sitting with him to judge and condemn them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Sixth, then the sentence of condemnation shall be pronounced by the Judge upon them. Mat. 25:41, “Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels.” This sentence will be pronounced with awful majesty, and there shall be great indignation, and dreadful wrath shall then appear in the Judge, and in his voice, with which he shall pronounce the sentence. What a horror and amazement will these words strike into the hearts of the wicked, on whom they shall be pronounced! Every word and syllable shall be like the most amazing thunder to them, and shall pierce their souls like the fiercest lightning. The Judge will bid them depart from him. He will drive them from his presence, as exceedingly abominable to him, and he shall give them the epithet accursed. They shall be an accursed company, and he will not only bid them depart from his presence, but into everlasting fire, to dwell there as their only fit habitation. And what shows the dreadfulness of the fire, is, that it is prepared for the devil and his angels. They shall lie forever in the same fire in which the devils, those grand enemies of God, shall be tormented. When this sentence shall be pronounced, there shall be in the vast company at the left hand, tremblings and mourning, and crying, and gnashing of teeth, in a new manner, beyond all that ever was before. If the devils, those proud and lofty spirits, tremble many ages beforehand at the bare thoughts of this sentence, how ill they tremble when it comes to be pronounced! And how, alas, will wicked men tremble! Their anguish will be aggravated by hearing that blessed sentence pronounced on those who shall be at the right hand, “Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Seventh, then the sentence shall be executed. When the Judge bids them depart, they must go; however loth, yet they must go. Immediately upon the finishing of the judgment and the pronouncing of the sentence, will come the end of the world. The frame of this world shall be dissolved. The pronouncing of that sentence will probably be followed with amazing thunders, that shall rend the heavens, and shake the earth out of its place. 2 Pet. 3:10, “But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also, and the works that are therein, shall be burnt up.” Then shall the sea and the waves roar, and the rocks shall be thrown down, and the mountains shall rend asunder, and there shall be one universal wreck of this great world. Then shall the heavens be dissolved, and then the earth shall be set on fire. As God in wrath once destroyed the world by a flood of water, so now shall he cause it to be all drowned in a deluge of fire; and the heavens being on fire, shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, 2 Pet. 3:10, and that great company of devils and wicked men must then enter into those everlasting burnings to which they are sentenced.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Eighth, in this condition they shall remain throughout the never-ending ages of eternity. Their punishment shall be then complete, and it shall remain in this completion forever. Now shall all that come upon them which they so long trembled for fear of, while their souls were in a separate state. They will dwell in a fire that never shall be quenched, and here they must wear out eternity. Here they must wear out one thousand years after another, and that without end. There is no reckoning up the millions of years or millions of ages. All arithmetic here fails, no rules of multiplication can reach the amount, for there is no end. They shall have nothing to do to pass away their eternity, but to conflict with those torments. This will be their work forever and ever. God shall have no other use or employment for them. This is the way that they must answer the end of their being. And they never shall have any rest, nor any atonement, but their torments will hold up to their height, and shall never grow any easier by their being accustomed to them. Time will seem long to them, every moment shall seem long to them, but they shall never have done with the ages of their torment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;APPLICATION&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;I. HENCE what need have we to take care that our foundation for eternity be sure! They who build on a false foundation, are not secure from this misery. They who build up a refuge of lies, will find that their refuge must fail them. Their wall that they have daubed with untempered mortar will fall. The more dreadful the misery is, the more need have we to see that we are safe from it. It will be dreadful indeed to be disappointed in such a case. To please ourselves with dreams and vain imaginations of our being the children of God, and of going to heaven, and at last to awake in hell, to see our refuge swept away, and our hope eternally gone, and to find ourselves swallowed up in flames, and to see and endless duration of it before us. How dreadful will this be!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;There will be many that will be thus disappointed. Many shall come to the door and shall find it shut, who expected to find it open, and shall knock, but Christ will tell them that he knows them not, and he will bid them depart, and it will be in vain for them to tell Christ what affections they have had, and how religious they were, and how well they were accounted of on earth. They shall have no other answer but, “Depart from me, I know you not, ye that work iniquity.” Let us all consider this, and give all diligence, to see that we build sure if by any means we may at last be found in Christ. Let us see to it that we are indeed well secured from this dreadful misery. What will it avail us to please ourselves with a notion of being converted, and being beloved of God. And what will it avail us to have the good opinion of our neighbors for a few days, if we must at last be cast into hell, and appear at the day of judgment at the left hand, and have our eternal portion with unbelievers? A false hope cannot profit us, it is a thousand times worse than none. And who are more miserable than those who think that God has pardoned their sins, and who expect to have a portion with the righteous hereafter, but are all the while going headlong down into this dreadful misery? What case can be more awful than the case of those who are thus led blindfold to the slaughter, promising themselves a happiness that is never like to come, but on the contrary are sinking into endless tribulation and anguish!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Let everyone therefore, who entertains hope of his own state, see to it, that he be well built; and let him not rest in past attainment, but reach forth towards those things that are before with all his might.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;II. Hence we derive an argument for the awakening of ungodly men. This indignation and wrath, tribulation and anguish, is the portion allotted to you if you continue in your present condition. Thou art the man spoken of; it is to thee that all this misery is assigned by the threatening of God’s holy word. It is on thee that this wrath of God abides. Thou art now in a state of condemnation to this misery. John 3:18, “He that believeth not is condemned already; because he hath not believed in the name of the only-begotten Son of God.” It is not already executed upon you, but you are already condemned to it; you are not merely exposed to condemnation, but you are under the actual sentence of condemnation. This is the portion that is already allotted to you by the law and not under grace. This misery is the misery into which you are everyday in danger of dropping, you are not safe from it one hour. How soon it may come upon you, you know not; you hang over it by a thread, that is continually growing more and more feeble. This dreadful misery in all its successive parts belongs to you, and is your due. Your friends and your neighbors, and all around you, if they knew what your condition was, might well lift up a loud and bitter cry over you, whenever they behold you, and say, Here is an unhappy being condemned to be given up eternally into the hands of devils to be tormented by them. Here is a miserable man who is in danger every day of being swallowed up in the bottomless gulf of woe and misery. Here is a wretched undone creature condemned to lie down forever in unquenchable fire, and to dwell in everlasting burnings; and he has no interest in a Savior, he has nothing to defend him, he has nothing wherewith to appease the wrath of an offended God. Here consider two things.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;First, you have no reason to question whether those future miseries and torments which are threatened in God’s Word are realities. Do not flatter yourself with thinking that it may not be so. Say not, How do I know that there is any such misery to be inflicted in another world; how do I know but all is a fable, and that when I come to die there will be an end of me, and that it will be with me as it is with the beasts. Do not say, How do I know but that all those things are only bugbears of man’s inventing. How do I know that the Scriptures, that threaten those things, are the Word of God; or if he has threatened those things, it may be it is only to frighten men to keep them to their duty, it may be he never intends to do as he threatens.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;I say that there is no ground for any such suspicion, neither is there any reason for it; for that there should be no future punishment is not only contrary to Scripture, but reason. It is a most unreasonable thing to suppose that there should be no future punishment, to suppose that God, who had made man a rational creature, able to know his duty, and sensible that he is deserving punishment when he does it not; should let man alone, and let him live as he will, and never punish him for his sins, and never make any difference between the good and the bad; that he should make the world of mankind and then let it alone, and let men live all their days in wickedness, in adultery, murder, robbery, and persecution, and the like, and suffer them to live in prosperity, and never punish them; that he should suffer them to prosper in the world far beyond many good men, and never punish them hereafter. How unreasonable is it to suppose, that he who made the world, should leave things in such confusion, and never take any care of the government of his creatures, and that he should never judge his reasonable creatures! Reason teaches that there is a God, and reason teaches that if there be, he must be a wise and just God, and that he must take care to order things wisely and justly among his creatures. And therefore it is unreasonable to suppose that man dies like a beast, and that there is no future punishment. And if there be a future punishment, it is unreasonable to suppose that God has not somewhere or other given men warning of it, and revealed to them what kind of punishment they must expect. Will a wise lawgiver keep his subjects in ignorance as to what punishment they must expect for breaking his laws? And if God has revealed it, where is it to be found but in the Scripture; what revelation have we of a future state if it is not there revealed? Where does God tell mankind what kind of rewards and punishments they must expect, if not here? And it is abundantly manifest by innumerable evidences, that these threatenings are the threatenings of God, that this awful book is his revelation. And since God has threatened, there is no room to question whether he will fulfill; for he hath said it, yea, he hath sworn it, that he will repay the wicked to his face according to threatenings, and that he will glorify himself in their destruction, and that this heaven and earth shall pass away. How foolish then is the thought that God may only threaten such punishment to frighten men, and that he never intends to execute it! For as surely as God is God, he will do as he has said. He will destroy the mountains of iniquity as he has threatened, and there shall be no escaping. How vain are the thoughts of those who flatter themselves that God will not fulfill his threatenings, and that he only frightens and deceives men in them; as though God could in no other way govern the world than by making use of fallacious tricks and deceits to delude his subjects! Those that entertain such thoughts, however they may harden themselves by them for the present, will cherish them but a little while. Their experience will soon convince them that God is a God of truth, and that his threatenings are no delusions. They will be convinced that he is a God who will by no means clear the guilty, and that his threatenings are substantial, and not mere shadows, when it will be too late to escape them. Deu. 29:18-21, “Lest there should be among you man, or woman, or family, or tribe, whose heart turneth away this day from the Lord our God, to go and serve the gods of these nations; lest there should be among you a root that beareth gall and wormwood; and it come to pass, when he heareth the words of this curse, that he bless himself in his heart, saying , I shall have peace, though I walk in the imagination of mine heart, to add drunkenness to thirst: the Lord will not spare him; but then the anger of the Lord and his jealousy shall smoke against that man, and all the curses that are written in this book shall lie upon him, and the Lord shall blot out his name from under heaven. And the Lord shall separate him unto evil out of all the tribes of Israel, according to all the curses of the covenant that are written in this book of the law.” Psa. 50:21, “These things hast thou done, and I kept silence; thou thoughtest that I was altogether such an one as thyself: but I will reprove thee, and set them in order before thine eyes.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Second, there is no reason to suspect that possibly ministers set forth this matter beyond what it really is, that possibly it is not so dreadful and terrible as is pretended, and that ministers strain the description of it beyond just bounds. Some may be ready to think so, because it seems to them incredible that there should be so dreadful a misery to any creature. But there is no reason for any such thoughts as these, if we consider,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;1. How great a punishment the sins of wicked men deserve. The Scripture teaches us that anyone sin deserves eternal death. Rom. 6:23, “For the wages of sin is death: but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” And that it deserves the eternal curse of God. Deu. 27:26, “Cursed be he that confirmeth not all the words of this law to do them: and all the people shall say, Amen.” Gal 3:10, “For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.” Which things imply that the least sin deserves total and eternal destruction. Eternal death, in the least degree of it, amounts to such a degree of misery as is the perfect destruction of the creature, the loss of all good, and perfect misery; and so does being accursed of God imply it. To be cursed of God, is to be devoted to perfect and ultimate destruction. The Scripture teaches that wicked men shall be punished to their full desert, that they shall pay all the debt.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;2. There is no reason to think that ministers describe the misery of the wicked beyond what it is, because the Scripture teaches us that this is one end of ungodly men, to show the dreadfulness and power of God’s wrath. Rom. 9:22, “What if God, willing to show his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much long-suffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction.” It is often spoken of as part of the glory of God, that he is a terrible and dreadful God. Psa. 68:35, “O God, thou art terrible out of thy holy places:” that he is a consuming fire. Psa. 66:3, “How terrible art thou in thy works! through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee:” and that herein one part of the glory of God is represented as consisting, that it is so dreadful a thing to injure and offend God. The wrath of a king is as the roaring of a lion, the wrath of a man is sometimes dreadful, but the future punishment of ungodly men is to show what the wrath of God is. It is to show to the whole universe the glory of God’s power. 2 Thes. 1:9, “Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power.” And therefore the punishment which we have described is not at all incredible, and there is no reason to think that it has been in the least described beyond what it really is.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;3. The Scripture teaches that the wrath of God on wicked men is dreadful beyond all that we can conceive. Psa. 90:11, “Who knoweth the power of thine anger? Even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath.” As it is but little that we know of God, as we know and can conceive of but little of his power and his greatness, so it is but a little that we know or can conceive of the dreadfulness of his wrath. And therefore there is no reason to suppose that we set it forth beyond what it is. We have rather reason to suppose that after we have said our utmost and thought our utmost, all that we have said or thought is but a faint shadow of the reality.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;We are taught that the reward of the saints is beyond all that can be spoken or conceived of. Eph. 3:20, “Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we can ask or think.” 1 Cor. 2:9, “Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.” And so we may rationally suppose that the punishment of the wicked will also be inconceivably dreadful.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;4. There is no reason to think that we set forth the misery of hell beyond the reality, because the Scripture teaches us that the wrath of God is according to his fear. Psa. 90:11. This passage asserts that the wrath of God is according to his awful attributes; his greatness and his might, his holiness and power. The majesty of God is exceedingly great and awful, but according to his awfulness, so is his wrath. This is the meaning of the words; and therefore we must conclude that the wrath of God is indeed beyond all expressions and signification terrible. How great and awful indeed is his majesty, who has made heaven and earth, and in what majesty will he come to judge the world at the last day! He will come to take vengeance on ungodly men. The sight of this majesty will strike wicked men with apprehensions and fears of destruction.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;5. The description which I have given of the tribulation and wrath of ungodly men, is not beyond the truth, for it is the very description which the Scriptures give of it. The Scriptures represent that the wicked shall be cast into a furnace of fire; not only a fire, but a furnace. Mat. 13:42, “And shall cast them into a furnace of fire; there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.” Rev. 20:15, “And whosoever was not found written in the book of life, was cast into the lake of fire.” Psa. 21:8, 9, “Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies; thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee. Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger; the Lord shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;If, therefore, I have described this misery beyond the truth, then the Scriptures have done the same. It is evident then, that there is no reason to flatter yourselves with such imaginations. If God be true, you shall find the wrath of God, and your future misery, full as great; and not only so, but much greater. You will find that we know but little, and have said but little about it, and that all our expressions are faint in comparison of the reality.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;III. Hence may be derived an argument to convince wicked men of the justice of God in allotting such a portion to them. Wicked men, when they hear it declared how awful the misery is of which they are in danger, often have their hearts lifted up against God for it. It seems to them very hard for God to deal so with any of his creatures. They cannot see why God should be so very severe with wicked men, for their sin and folly for a little while in this world. And when they consider that he has threatened such punishments, they are ready to entertain blasphemous thoughts against him. I would therefore endeavor to show you how justly you lie exposed to that indignation and wrath, tribulation and anguish, of which you have heard. Particularly I would show,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;First, how just it would be in God forever to leave you to yourself. It would be most just in God to refuse to be with you, or help you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;You have embraced and refused to let go those things which God hates; you have refused to forsake your lusts, and to abandon those ways of sin that are abominable to him. When God has commanded you to forsake them, how have you refused, and still have retained them, and been obstinate in it! Neither is your heart yet to this very day diverted from sin. But it is dear to you, you allow it the best place in your heart, you place it on the throne there. Would it be any wonder therefore if God should utterly leave you, seeing you will not leave sin? God has often declared his hatred of iniquity; and is it any wonder, that he is not willing to dwell with that which is so odious to him? Is it not reasonable that God should insist that you should part with your lusts in order to your enjoying his presence; and seeing you have so long refused, how just would it be if God should utterly forsake you? You have retained and harbored God’s mortal enemies, sin and Satan. How justly therefore might God stand at a distance! Is God obliged to be present with any who harbor his enemies, and refuse to forsake them? Would God be unjust, if he should leave you utterly to yourself, so long as you will not forsake your idols?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Consider how just it would be in God to let you alone, since you have let God alone. You have not sought God for his presence and help as you ought to have done; you have neglected him; and would it not therefore be just if he should neglect you? How long have many of you lived in neglecting to seek him? How long have you restrained prayer before him? Since therefore you refused so much as to seek the presence and help of God, and did not think them worth praying to him for, how justly might he forever withhold them, and so leave you wholly to yourself?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;You have done what in you lies to drive God away from you, and to cause him wholly to leave you. When God in times past has not let you alone, but has been unwearied in awakening you, have you not resisted the motions and influences of his Spirit; have you not refused to be conducted by him, or to yield to him? Zec. 7:11, “But they refused to hearken, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they should not hear.” How justly therefore might God refuse to move or strive any more! When God has been knocking at your door, you have refused to open to him. How just is it therefore that he should go away, and knock at your door no more! When the Spirit of God has been striving with you, have you not been guilty of grieving the Holy Spirit by giving way to a quarreling temper, and by yielding yourself a prey to lust? And have not some of you quenched the Spirit, and been guilty of backsliding? And is God obliged, notwithstanding all this, to continue the striving of his Spirit with you, to be resisted and grieved still, as long as you please? On the contrary, would it not be just if his Spirit should everlastingly leave you, and let you alone?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Second, how just it would be if you should be cursed in all your concerns in this world. It would be just if God should curse you in everything, and cause everything you enjoy, or are concerned in, to turn to your destruction.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;You live here in all the concerns of life as an enemy to God; you have used all your enjoyments and possessions against God, and to his dishonor. Would it not therefore be just if God should curse you in them, and turn them all against you, and to your destruction? What temporal blessing has God given you, which you have not used in the service of your lusts, in the service of sin and Satan? If you have been in prosperity, you have made use of it to God’s dishonor. When you have waxed fat, you have forgotten the God that made you. How just therefore would it be if God’s curse should attend all your enjoyments! Whatsoever employments you have followed, you have not served God in them, but God’s enemies. How just therefore would it be if you should be cursed in all your employments! The means of grace that you have enjoyed, you have not made use of as you ought to have done. You have made light of them, and have treated them in a careless disregardful manner; you have been the worse and not the better for them. You have so attended and used sabbaths, and spiritual opportunities, that you have only made them occasions of manifesting your contempt of God and Christ, and divine things, by your careless and profane manner of attending them. Would it not therefore be most just that God’s curse should attend your means of grace, and the opportunities which you enjoy for the salvation of your soul?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;You have improved your time only to heap up provocations and add to your transgressions, in opposition to all the calls and warnings that could be given you. How just therefore would it be if God should turn life itself into a curse to you, and suffer you to live only to fill up the measure of your sins!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;You have, contrary to God’s counsel, made use of your own enjoyments to the hurt of your soul, and therefore if God should turn to them to the hurt and ruin of your soul, he would but deal with you as you have dealt with yourself. God has earnestly counseled you times without number to use your temporal enjoyments for your spiritual good, but you have refused to hearken to him, you have foolishly perverted them to treasure up wrath against the day of wrath, you have voluntarily used what God has given you for your spiritual hurt, to increase your guilt and wound your own soul. And therefore if Gods curse should attend them, so that they should all turn to the ruin of your soul, you would but be dealt with as you have dealt with yourself.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Third, how just would it be in God to cut you off, and put an end to your life!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;You have greatly abused the patience and long-suffering of God which have already been exercised towards you. God with wonderful long-suffering has borne with you, when you have gone on in rebellion against him, and refused to turn from your evil ways. He has beheld you going on obstinately in the ways of provocation against him, and yet he has not let loose his wrath against you to destroy you, but has still waited to be gracious. He has suffered you yet to live on his earth, and breathe his air. He has upheld and preserved you, and continued still to feed you, and clothe you, and maintain you, and still to give you a space to repent; but instead of being the better for his patience, you have been the worse, instead of being melted by it, you have been hardened, and it has made you the more presumptuous in sin. Ecc. 8:11, “Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.” You have been guilty of despising the riches of his goodness, and forbearance, and long-suffering, instead of being led to repent by it. You cannot live one day but as God maintains and provides for you; you cannot draw a breath, or live a moment, unless God upholds you. For in his hand your breath is, and he holds your soul in life, and his visitation preserves your spirit. But what thanks has God had of it. How have you, instead of being turned to God, been only rendered the more fully set and dreadfully hardened in the ways of sin! How just therefore would it be if God’s patience should soon be at an end, and he should cease to bear with you any longer!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;You have not only abused his past patience, but have also abused his thoughts of future patience. You have flattered yourself that death was not near, and that you should live long in the world, and this has made you abundantly the more bold in sin. Since therefore such has been the use you have made of your expectation of having your life preserved, how just would it be in God to disappoint that expectation, and cut you short of that long life with which you have flattered yourself, and in the thoughts of which you have encouraged yourself in sin against him! How just would it be if your breath should soon be stopped, and that suddenly, when you think not of it, and you should be driven away in your wickedness!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;As long as you live in sin you do but cumber the ground, you are wholly unprofitable, and live in vain. He that refuses to live to the glory of God, does not answer the end of his creation, and for what should he live? God made men to serve him; to this end he gave them life. And if they will not devote their lives to this end, how just would it be in God if he should refuse to continue their lives any longer! He has planted you in his vineyard, to bear fruit; and if you bring forth no fruit, why should he continue you any longer? How just would it be in him to cut you down!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;As long as you live, many of the blessings of God are spent upon you from day to day; you devour the fruits of the earth and consume much of its fatness and sweetness; and all to no purpose, but to keep you alive to sin against God, and spend all in wickedness. The whole creation does as it were groan with you. The sun rises and sets to give you light, the clouds pour down rain upon you, and the earth brings forth her fruits, and labors from year to year to supply you. And you in the mean time do not answer the end of Him who has created all things. How just therefore would it be if God should soon cut you off, and take you away, and deliver the earth from this burden, that the creation may no longer groan with you, and cast you out as an abominable branch! Luke 13:7, “Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig-tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground?” John 15:2, 6, “Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away; and every branch that beareth fruit he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. — If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Fourth, how just would it be if you should die in the greatest horror and amazement!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;How often have you been exhorted to improve your time, to lay a foundation of peace and comfort on a death-bed; and yet you have refused to hearken! You have been many and many a time reminded that you must die, that it was very uncertain when, and that you did not know how soon, and have been told how mean and insignificant all your earthly enjoyments would then appear, and how unable to afford you any comfort on a deathbed.. You have been often told how dreadful it would be to lie on a death-bed in a Christless state, having nothing to comfort you but your worldly enjoyments. You have been often put in mind of the torment and amazement which sinners, who have misspent their precious time, are subject to when arrested by death. You have been told how infinitely you would then need to have God your friend, and to have the testimony of a good conscience, and a well-grounded hope of future blessedness. And how often have you been exhorted to take care to provide against such a day as this, and to lay up treasure in heaven, that you might have something to depend on when you parted from this world, something to hope for when all things here below fail! But remember how regardless you have been, how dull and negligent from time to time, when you have sat under the hearing of such things, and still you obstinately refuse to prepare for death, and take no care to lay a good foundation against that time. And you have not only been counseled, but you have seen others on their deathbeds in fear and distress, or have heard of them, and have not taken warning. Yea, some of you have been sick yourselves, and have been afraid that you were on your death-beds, yet God was merciful to you, and restored you, but you did not take warning to prepare for death. How justly therefore might you be the subject of that horror and amazement, of which you have heard, when you come to die!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;And not only so, but how industriously have you spent your time in treasuring up matter for tribulation and anguish at that time! You have not only been negligent of laying a foundation for peace and comfort then, but have spent your time continually and unweariedly in laying a foundation for distress and horror. How have you gone on from day to day, heaping up more and more guilt; more and more wounding your own conscience, still increasing the amount of folly and wickedness for you to reflect upon! How just therefore would it be that tribulation and anguish should then come upon you!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Fifth, how just it is that you should suffer the wrath of God in another world!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Because you have willfully provoked and stirred up that wrath. If you are not willing to suffer the anger of God, then why did you provoke him to anger? Why did you act as though you would contrive to make him angry with you? Why did you willfully disobey God? You know that willful disobedience tends to provoke him who is disobeyed; it is so in an earthly king, or master, or father. If you have a servant who is willfully disobedient, it provokes your anger. And again, if you would not suffer God’s wrath, why have you so often cast a slight on God? If anyone casts a slight on men, it tends to provoke them. How much more may the Infinite Majesty of heaven be provoked, when he is contemned! You have also robbed God of his property, you have refused to give him that which is his own. It provokes men when they are deprived of their due and they are dealt injuriously by; how much more may God be provoked when you rob him!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;You have also slighted the kindness of God to you, and that the greatest love and kindness of which you can conceive. You have been supremely ungrateful, and have only abused that kindness. Nothing provokes men more than to have their kindness slighted and abused. How much more may God be provoked when men requite his infinite mercy only with disobedience and ingratitude! If therefore you go on to provoke God, and to stir up his wrath, how can you expect any other than to suffer his wrath? If then you should indeed suffer the wrath of an offended God, remember it is what you have procured for yourself, it is a fire of your own kindling.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;You would not accept of deliverance from God’s wrath, when it has been offered to you. When God had in mercy sent his only-begotten Son into the world, you refused to admit him. You loved your sins too well to forsake them to come to Christ, and for the sake of your sins you have rejected all the offers of a Savior, so that you have chosen death rather than life. After you have procured wrath to yourself, you clove fast to it, and would not part with it for mercy. “All they that hate me, love death.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Sixth, how just would it be that you be delivered up into the had of the devil and his angels, to be tormented by them hereafter, seeing you have voluntarily given yourself up to serve them here! You have hearkened to them rather than to God. How just therefore would it be if God leave you to them! You have followed Satan and adhered to his interest in opposition to God, and have subjected yourself to his will in this world, rather than to the will of God. How just therefore would it be if God should give you up to his will hereafter!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Seventh, how justly may your bodies be made organs of torment to you hereafter, which you have made organs and instruments of sin in this world! You have given up your bodies a sacrifice to sin and Satan. How justly therefore may God give them up a sacrifice to wrath! You have employed your bodies as servants to your vile and hateful lusts. How just therefore would it be for God hereafter to raise your bodies to be organs and instruments of misery; and to fill them as full of torment as they have been filled full of sin!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Eighth, but the greatest objection of wicked men against the justice of the future punishment which God has threatened, is from the greatness of that punishment: that God should inflict upon the finally impenitent, torments so extreme, so amazingly dreadful, to have their bodies cast into a furnace of fire of such immense heat and fierceness, there to lie unconsumed, and yet full of sense and feeling, glowing within and without; and the soul full of yet more dreadful horror and torment; and so to remain without any remedy or rest forever, and ever, and ever. And, therefore, I would mention several things to you, to show how justly you lie exposed to so dreadful a punishment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;1. This punishment, as dreadful as it is, is not more so than the Being is great and glorious against whom you have sinned. It is true this punishment is dreadful beyond all expression or conception, and so is the greatness and gloriousness of God as much beyond all expression or conception; and yet you have continued to sin against him, yea, you have been bold and presumptuous in your sins, and have multiplied transgressions against him without end. The wrath of God that you have heard of, dreadful as it is, is not more dreadful than that Majesty which you have despised and trampled on is awful. This punishment is indeed enough to fill one with horror barely to think of it. And so it would fill you with at least equal horror to think of sinning so exceedingly against so great and glorious a God, if you conceived of it aright. Jer. 2:12, 13, “Be astonished, O ye heavens, at this, and be horribly afraid; be ye very desolate, saith the Lord: for my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters; and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water!” God’s being so infinitely great and excellent, has not influenced you not to sin against him, but you have done it boldly, and made nothing of it, thousands of times; and why should this misery, being so infinitely great and dreadful, hinder God from inflicting it on you? 1 Sam. 2:25, “If one man sin against another, the judge shall judge him: but if a man sin against the Lord, who shall entreat for him?”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;2. Your nature is not more averse from such misery as you have heard of, than God’s nature is averse from such sin as you have been guilty of. The nature of man is very averse from pain and torment, and especially it is exceedingly averse from such dreadful and eternal torment. But yet that does not hinder but that it is just that it should be inflicted, for men do not hate misery more than God hates sin. God is so holy, and is of so pure a nature, that he has an infinite aversion to sin. But yet you have made light of sin, and your sins have been exceedingly multiplied and enhanced. The consideration of God’s hating of it has not at all hindered you from committing it. Why, therefore, should the consideration of your hating misery hinder God from bringing it upon you? God represents himself in his word as burdened an wearied with the sins of wicked men. Isa. 1:14. “Your new moons and your appointed feasts, my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.” Mal. 2:17, “Ye have wearied the Lord with your words: yet ye say, Wherein have we wearied him? When ye say, Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight of the Lord, and he delighteth in them; or, Where is the God of judgment?”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;3. You have not cared how much God’s honor suffered. And why should God be careful lest your misery be great? You have been told how much these and those things which you have practiced were to the dishonor of God; yet you did not care for that, but went on still multiplying transgressions. The consideration that the more you sinned, the more God was dishonored, did not in the least restrain you. If it had not been for fear of God’s displeasure, you would not have cared though you had dishonored him ten thousand times as much as you did. As for any respect you had to God, you did not care what became of God’s honor, nor of his happiness neither, no, nor of his being. Why then is God obliged to be careful how much you suffer? Why should he be careful of your welfare, or use any caution lest he should lay more on you than you can bear.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;4. As great as this wrath is, it is not greater than that love of God which you have slighted and rejected. God, in infinite mercy to lost sinners, has provided a way for them to escape future misery, and to obtain eternal life. For that end he has given his only-begotten Son, a person infinitely glorious and honorable in himself — being equal with God, and infinitely near and dear to God. It was ten thousand times more than if God had given all the angels in heaven, or the whole world, for sinners. Him he gave to be incarnate, to suffer death, to be made a curse for us, and to undergo the dreadful wrath of God in our room, and thus to purchase for us eternal glory. This glorious person has been offered to you times without number, and he has stood and knocked at your door, till his hairs were with the dews of the night. But all that he has done has not won upon you. You see no form nor comeliness in him, no beauty that you should desire him. When he has thus offered himself to you as your Savior, you never freely and heartily accept of him. This love which you have thus abused, is as great as that wrath of which you are in danger. If you would have accepted of it, you might have had the enjoyment of this love instead of enduring this terrible wrath. So that the misery you have heard of is not greater than the love you have despised, and the happiness and glory which you have rejected. How just than would it be in God to execute upon you this dreadful wrath, which is not greater than that love which you have despised! Heb. 2:3, “How shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation?”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;5. If you complain of this punishment as being too great, then why has it not been great enough to deter you from sin? As great as it is, you have made nothing of it. When God threatened to inflict it on you, you did not mind his threatenings, but were bold to disobey him, and to do those very things for which he threatened this punishment. Great as this punishment is, it has not been great enough to keep you from living a willfully wicked life, and going on in ways that you knew were evil. When you have been told that such and such things certainly exposed you to this punishment, you did not abstain on that account, but went on from day to day in a most presumptuous manner, and God’s threatening such a punishment was no effectual check upon you. Why therefore do you now complain of this punishment as too great, and quarrel against it, and say that God is unreasonable and cruel to inflict it? In so saying you are condemned out of your own mouth; for if it be so dreadful a punishment, and more than is just, then why was it not great enough at least to retrain you from willful sinning? Luke 19:21, 22, “I feared thee, because thou art an austere man, thou takest up that thou laidest not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow. And he said unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant,” You complain of this punishment as too great, but yet you have acted as if it was not great enough, and you have made light of it. If the punishment is too great, why have you gone on to make it still greater? You have gone on from day to day, to treasure up wrath against the day of wrath, to add to your punishment, and increase it exceedingly. And yet now you complain of it as too great, as though God could not justly inflict so great a punishment. How absurd and self-contradictory is the conduct of such an one, who complains of God for making his punishment too great, and yet from day to day industriously gathers, and heaps up fuel, to make the fire the greater!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;6. You have no cause to complain of the punishment being greater than is just; for you have many and many a time provoked God to do his worst. If you should forbid a servant to do a given thing, and threaten that if he did it you would inflict some very dreadful punishment upon him, and he should do it notwithstanding, and you should renew your command, and warn him in the most strict manner possible not to do it, and tell him you would surely punish him if he persisted, and should declare that his punishment should be exceedingly dreadful, and he should wholly disregard you, and should disobey you again, and you should continue to repeat your commands and warnings ,still setting out the dreadfulness of the punishment, and he should still, without any regard to you, go on again and again to disobey you to your face, and this immediately on your thus forbidding and threatening him: could you take it any otherwise than as daring you to do your worst? But thus have you done towards God. You have had his commands repeated, and his threatenings set before you hundreds of times, and have been most solemnly warned. Yet have you notwithstanding gone on in ways which you knew were sinful, and have done the very things which he has forbidden, directly before his face. Job 15:25, 26, “For he stretcheth out his hand against God, and strengtheneth himself against the Almighty. He runneth upon him, even on his neck, upon the thick bosses of his buckler.” You have thus bid defiance to the Almighty, even when you saw the sword of his vindictive wrath uplifted, that it might fall upon your head. Will it, therefore, be any wonder if he shall make you know how terrible that wrath is, in your utter destruction? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5196052296126723727-2608747345156214546?l=johntimothyvian.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/feeds/2608747345156214546/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5196052296126723727&amp;postID=2608747345156214546' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/2608747345156214546'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5196052296126723727/posts/default/2608747345156214546'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://johntimothyvian.blogspot.com/2010/12/portion-of-wicked.html' title='The Portion of the Wicked'/><author><name>John T.

If the sinner were afraid of these, he could never go on so securely in sin, as he doth.&lt;br /&gt;It was a strange thing that men, who enjoyed such light as they did in the land of Israel, who read and heard those many awful threatenings which were written in the book of the law, should not be afraid to go on in sin. But saith the Psalmist, They flatter themselves in their own eyes: they have something or other which they make a foundation of encouragement, whereby they persuade themselves that they shall escape those judgments, and that makes them put far away the evil day.&lt;br /&gt;In this manner he proceeds, until his iniquity be found to be hateful; that is, until he finds by experience that it is a more dreadful thing to sin against God, and break his holy commands, than he imagined. He thinks sin to be sweet, and hides it as a sweet morsel under his tongue. He loves it and flatters himself in it, till at length he finds, by experience, that it is bitter as gall and wormwood. Though he thinks the commission of sin to be lovely, yet he will find the fruit of it to be hateful, and what he cannot endure. Pro 23:32, “At last it will bite like a serpent, and sting like an adder.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here observe, the subject spoken of is the wicked man, of whom the Psalmist had been speaking in the foregoing verse. — His action in flattering himself in his own eyes; i.e. he makes himself and his case to appear to himself, or in his own eyes, better than it is.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How long he continues so to do, until his iniquity be found to be hateful. Which may be taken for either his sin itself, the wicked will see how odious sin is to God, when he shall feel the effects of his hatred, and how hateful to angels and saints. Or rather the cause is here put for the effect, the tree for its fruit, and he will find his iniquity to be hateful, as he will find the hatefulness and feel the terribleness of the fruit of his iniquity. — Hence it appears that Wicked men generally flatter themselves with hopes of escaping punishment, till it actually comes upon them.&lt;br /&gt;There are but few sinners who despair, who give up the cause and conclude with themselves, that they shall go to hell. Yet there are but few who do not go to hell. It is to be feared that many go to hell every day out of this country. Yet very few of them suffer themselv
